FP Outdoor Learning Classrooms
Presenter: Jen Summers,
Location: SOUTH WALES: Future Inn, Cardiff Bay, Hemmingway Road, CF104AU

What can I do with this concrete ‘space’?

Introducing, organising, and managing an outdoor classroom can be extremely challenging, especially in schools where there is little access to suitable outdoor space.

This event will focus specifically on areas adjacent to classrooms (the ‘bit’ outside the classroom) and will provide practitioners with the opportunity to refine and further develop current systems for organising and managing this interesting area.
