A high-quality structured outdoor environment within which a child can learn, interact and be physically active, is crucial to their long-term development. Finding training that focuses on children's needs will help unlock the environment's potential.
National school grounds charity Learning Through Landscapes (LTL) provides a range of training courses. 'We tailor our courses to the needs of the practitioners,' explains Annie Davey, early years development advisor with LTL. 'The length of the course - a day or a twilight session right through to ongoing support for a set period of time - varies according to a setting's requirements.
