Outdoor learning offers a valuable opportunity to enrich education, promote personal growth, and connect children and young people with the natural world. The recently updated 'High Quality Outdoor Learning 2025' guide provides a framework for teachers, school leaders, and outdoor practitioners aiming to implement or enhance outdoor learning in their settings.

ISO 31031:2024 provides guidance on managing risks associated with youth and school trips. It covers risk management strategies for both domestic and international travel, focusing on ensuring the safety and well-being of children and young adults. The standard is designed to assist organisations in planning, executing, and evaluating trips with a structured approach to risk assessment, safeguarding, and emergency response.

EVOLVE Advice has announced the 2024 recipients of its annual Get Out! Grant, providing £500 each to twelve schools in England and Wales to help fund enriching educational visits. The grant will help to bridge a growing funding gap, which has left schools and families struggling to meet the costs of educational visits.
