New Modular Forest Schools Training to run at Elvaston Castle Country Park nr Derby 2012
The Forest School Training Company are offering their new Forest School modular training course in Derbyshire starting in May or June.
This new course format enables participants to work in shorter 2 day modules and the series of modules can take you from an OCN Level 1 introduction to Forest School right up to OCN Level 3 Forest School Leader level allowing participants to progress at their own pace. They can also ‘top up’ from Level 2 to 3 without having to repeat work and days.
