Outdoor Learning

Our Outdoor Learning Team includes Miss C. Fraser, Mrs E. Lynch & Mr A. Gardiner.

Outdoor learning typically involves outdoor experiences, such as orienteering, sporting activities, learning walks or adventures activities. Outdoor education usually involves collaborative learning experiences with a high level of physical (and often emotional) challenge; practical problem-solving, explicit reflection and discussion of thinking (metacognition).

At Malvern we strive to use outdoor education as we believe that there are many benefits on academic learning and wider outcomes such as self-confidence, perseverance and resilience which are often developed through outdoor learning and that these skills have a knock-on impact on academic outcomes. Due to our landscape development we now have many opportunities to take our pupils onto our school field to plant trees and wildflowers, cultivate allotments and see different habitats within our dipping pond.
