Outdoor Classrooms For Schools & Nurseries

Our outdoor classrooms create the perfect environment for outside learning. With a wide range of sizes available we can design your ideal seating arrangement for structured or unstructured lessons. Roofs are manufactured to allow natural light to maximise daylight to the seating areas and to provide shelter from both sun and rain.

Including steel reinforced concrete flooring, twin sets of French doors and opening double glazed windows, our wheelchair friendly outdoor classroom are safe and enjoyable to use in all conditions.

On the edge of the playing field this is intended to further enhance outdoor learning, so valued by the school governors, staff and pupils. The provision of this structure facilitates engagement through first hand learning for all the children. Providing a bridgehead to Forest Learning, science experiments and a unique creative space.

Why are outdoor classrooms important?

Outdoor classrooms are increasing in popularity. When outdoors, children are shown to have increased concentration levels and are inspired to learn.

Whether extending existing learning space, or creating an interesting alternative to the traditional classroom, outdoor classrooms can raise engagement levels in pupils.

What are the benefits of outdoor learning?

There are a number of benefits to learning outside in a natural environment. These include improved social skills, improved learning experiences, especially for tactile and experiential learners, and the incorporation of physical activity.

What should be in an outdoor classroom?

Outdoor classrooms can be used in any season to teach any subject. This versatility makes them extremely popular. To get the most from this area the learning environment should be reflective of the indoor space.

However, the advantages of an outdoor space is the possibility to interact with nature. Maximise this effect, by using thermometers to teach science, pine cones to enhance maths lessons or chalk to draw what they can see.
