Field Studies

Rivers and streams, rocks and fossils, plants and soils - just some of the subjects children encounter in our tailor-made field studies units. We base the development of our courses around areas teachers tell us are difficult to deliver in school!

Our 'hands-on' approach to Field Studies will ensure that your group gets the most from their course.

  • Using real life 'touchable' examples means that the subjects come to life for the pupils, which enhances their understanding.

  • Your group will become familiar with key fieldwork equipment such as hand-held computers, data loggers and digital cameras.

  • High quality evidence - your group will be able to record the work they do using multi-media and all work can be taken back to school in the form of a CD Rom and worksheets.
