All Party Parliamentary Group for Outdoor Learning: Access and Equity Report - Survey Invitation
All Party Parliamentary Group for Outdoor Learning: Access and Equity Report - Survey Invitation
We are inviting education and youth work professionals, educational advisers, outdoor learning providers and consultants to take part in a short survey exploring access to Outdoor Learning across England.
The survey is designed to help understand who is - and who isn’t - benefiting from Outdoor Learning, what the barriers preventing access to the benefits are and how they can be overcome. This research has been commissioned by the All Party Parliamentary Group for Outdoor Learning and designed in consultation with the Department for Education (England) who will receive a copy of the final report. It is designed to fill in gaps in the current evidence base.
The survey should take approximately 10 - 15 minutes to complete. The more responses we get the more useful the results will be, so please do forward it to your networks and contacts too.
Follow the link below and submit your response by Monday 25th September.

'Outdoor learning is vital to the educational, emotional and physical wellbeing of our young people. We know that too many young people don't get to access those opportunities and I am determined that we fully understand why, so that we can persuade the government to tackle those barriers and ensure that every young person can benefit from the positive impact of outdoor learning experiences.'
Thank you for your support
MP Tim Farron
Chair of the APPG-OL
All-Party Parliamentary Groups (APPGs) are informal cross-party groups that have no official status within Parliament. They are run by and for Members of the Commons and Lords, though many choose to involve individuals and organisations from outside Parliament in their administration and activities.
