Home Ed Forest School

Kent Wildlife Trust Home Ed Forest School offers exciting opportunities for self-learning, exploration and discovery.

Children develop skills whilst increasing their knowledge and understanding of the world, encouraging respect for their environment and re-connection with nature.

The outdoor setting encourages a relationship with the natural world, whilst offering opportunities to learn new and transferable skills. A range of learner-centred processes and supported risks develop resilient, confident, independent and creative children.
