The FSA is a growing repository for practitioner-research, with the intention of building a body of evidence that can contribute to our developing understanding of Forest School. Please see the following document, which explains the research rational behind this:
Forest School as a Way of Learning in the Outdoors in the UK

Please email your document to [email protected] and mark it for the attention of the Research Working Group. This group will consider the case study and assign it with one or more ‘tags’ by which it can be stored and searched for. You may wish to indicate which of these tags (or any others) your case study should be assigned. They are as follows:
Early years, Primary, Secondary, Working with adult groups, Special educational needs, Emotional learning, Social effects, Curriculum links, Language and communication, Working with parent groups, Creativity, Story telling, Sense of place
