Forest Schools Omdömen 22

It was very insightful and really opened our eyes to what we can implement. Guidance was really good too and the feedback was really good and fast.

despite hiccups from the couriers the tools we needed as a leaving gift were here just in time thanks to the efforts of the forestschools team

I had requested help and to talk to someone but no-one called!

Jonty had sent an email about timings for a call and I returned the email but no call came.

I am in the process of completing my Level 3 Forest School Leader course online.
The support team and Teams support sessions are really helpful and the content of the course is very detailed.
Would highly recommend if online is suited to your work schedule as I love the flexibility of when I study.

The instructors, the education, everything is great. Would recommend 10/10.

I had a 1-1 session with Pete to help enhance my knowledge whilst completing my forest school training. The session from start to finish was jam packed with facts, a deeper understanding and so much fun. I came away feeling confident and eager to learn more. I will definitely be booking another session. Pete was kind and made the whole experience very relaxing. He’s an absolute asset to the company and what he doesn’t know isn’t worth knowing! Fab guy

Training was thorough and informative and a great chance to network

I'm doing the online Level 3 Forest School Leader training, which is a good opportunity when you're abroad and want to run your own Forest School outside the UK. The videos are short and basic, they don't give much information. The grading of the evidence you have to submit takes a long time.

I don’t think 9 months is achievable if you have a job or other commitments. If you do not complete in the 9 months you have to pay to redo the whole course. From what I’ve read extensions are not granted. I’ve also found the training materials not enough and I’m having to google and research more to answer the questions thoroughly. Theres a lot of extras as well that is not advertised. You need to demonstrate setting up shelters, knots and tools use so you will need to buy these extras (included in the tool kit but still extra costs in addition to the course. Overall I wish I’d picked a different provider

The information and practical skills taught were great, course leader was very informative, supportive and friendly. I feel confident

Great 👍 worked in small groups.
Tutor very knowledgeable and easy to talk to.
Made my understanding of why we are foing gordet schools better.

Great experience, very informative and welcoming member of staff, provided all the information plus extra with enough time and support to understand everything.

I never received anything!

Training in itself is mind blowing, creating a lot more value than its cost.
Careful with the international trainings agent: she hardly answers emails nor pick-up the phone.

This course is very fun! The tutors are very helpful and there is clear guidance in why I need to do it. would 100% recommend it to anyone interested in nature and teaching outside.

Forest school training for educators has been an absolute game-changer! The easy access to materials and the exceptional quality of the videos have truly elevated the learning experience. 🌿📽️

One of the most remarkable aspects of this program is the accessibility it offers. With readily available materials and resources, educators can seamlessly integrate outdoor learning into their curriculum. This convenience not only saves time but also ensures that teachers have everything they need to create engaging and meaningful lessons in the natural environment.

Really good starter into forest schools they used videos so you can see and talked through what they do I found it very informative

This school is teaching my sons to be hypocrites I feel bad for the boys of u 13 As Berkhamsted when there were blatant fouls and handballs by the forest boys and our manager said to us that was out or that was a foul but didn’t tell the referee he made a mistake which by the was a sixth former but on the educational side it is abysmal as the teachers are rubbish in their specific fields

An excellent course, step by step leading to the result of the student.

The only online course for leading forestry schools.

At the same time, almost all educational work is carried out offline.

Short videos and text blocks describe the task and motivate. Next comes independent work in nature. It includes developing skills, studying the area, working with local administration and many other issues.

Feedback is provided for each task.

Initially, 300 hours was intimidating for me. Because my English is not very strong. But in fact, everything was quite simple for perception.

I liked this format.

I was very inspired by the very approach of forest schools, scientific validity, the need to work with scientific research in the learning process. Focus on the holistic development of the child, and not on the content of the lesson. This was clear even from the first level of FSL level 1. But it was in the third that every lesson, every skill, every piece of information supported the main mission. Therefore, it is impossible not to fall in love with this approach.

Of the minuses: I would like to get feedback on completed tasks on the platform faster.

But it was not so scary, because you could always write to program managers on Facebook and get a prompt response.

For me, the course was an impetus for professional and internal growth. Thank you!
