Teacher Training Outdoor Education CPD

Through 2014 we developed various workshops to develop outdoor learning in schools by educating teachers.
This proved to be very popular with a realization that there was a real need for this type of CPD in schools.
At the start of 2015 we introduced Kingsway Training, a division of the Kingsway Centre wholly devoted to developing outdoor learning in schools for both KS1 and KS2.
With Kingsway Training coming into been we have since built the foundation to a working relationship with the Institute of Outdoor Learning, focused around jointly developing and delivering outdoor education training to schools across the North of England.
