About the course
This course covers four Units of Study at Level 2 and looks in more depth at practical skills, using the woodland as a sustainable resource and the theoretical side of planning for learning and play at Forest School. This course is designed for those wanting to assist a Level 3 Forest School Leader

These Units are:
Supporting Learning, Play and Development in the Outdoors
Sustainable Use of Natural Resources
Outdoor Practical Skills
Assist at Forest School

This qualification is ideal for those who would like a more in depth introductory course or who need more practical and academic experience in order to progress to the Level 3 – Certificate in Leading Forest School course. This course offers plenty of opportunities to develop your own skills at Forest School in preparation for passing those on to others at a later date. Completion of the Level 2 booklet takes place during the course and whilst assisting a Forest School Practitioner (Level 3 Trained) with planning and delivery of Forest School programmes. For this reason you must ensure an established link with a Forest School Practitioner before coming on to the course.

Course duration – 4 days of training, plus assisting with planning and delivery of minimum of 3 Forest Schools Sessions. This is usually a minimum time commitment of 3 x half a day.
(course is completed within six months of start date)

Please note this course enables you to assist at Forest Schools, and does not qualify you to run Forest Schools Sessions.
