Completely agree. Residential trips provide unparalleled opportunities to do just this.
“Consequences of narrow curriculum - hit target but miss the point” @PhilMinns Taking learning beyond classroom can bring learning to life, make it relevant & deepen understanding. #LOtCconf @CLOtC @theoeap

‘There is a sequence to the way you build knowledge’ ‘Knowledge is sticky’ The greater range of ways to make that sticky the better - couldn’t agree more! #OutdoorClassroomDay #lotcconf @PhilMinns @Ofstednews
There are so many benefits to a winter residential - They can boost resilience and wellbeing, increase engagement with learning, embed learning back in school and foster deeper relationships #OutdoorClassroomDay #WinterResidentials @OutdoorClassDay @LearningAway
