Outdoor Learning

Learning and Teaching Scotland have engaged Adventure Activity Associates Ltd to assist with the creation of clear and accessable Health and Safety advice and guidance.

 

Over the next three months Adventure Activity Associates will:

 

·      use the current Scottish Government document on Health and Safety for Educational Excursions (HSEE) to produce more concise, manageable and accessible online guidance

 

·      produce guidance for inclusion in the Outdoor Learning Framework which reflects the positive aspects of risk as well as its proper management.

 

·      produce supporting material for website publication

 

·      conduct a study on the feasibility and desirability of developing an ‘all Scotland agreement’ on health and safety requirements for educational excursions, with recommendations for next steps

 

It is important to the project’s success that as wide a range of stakeholders as possible are aware that the work is under way. 

 

This is an exciting project intended to increase opportunities for access to outdoor learning by young people.
