Schools

Groundwork works with schools to deliver innovative environmental education, transform school grounds and re-engage disaffected young people into education.

Our work with schoolchildren in school links to the national curriculum and helps to illustrate how our individual actions can make a difference to the local and global environment.   Teaching young people about their impact on the planet is the first step to changing that behaviour for the better. 

We also work with schools to support ‘at risk’ young people, providing them with positive experiences and building the skills that will allow them to move forwards with education, employment or training.

  • Alternative Curriculum Programmes

    We use the environment to help re-engage pupils with education - both within the school grounds and outside of the usual educational system.

We make a difference

This was a wonderful experience for the children – some had not been to the woods before
