Outdoor Education and Learning

Learning outside the classroom and environmental education is a vital part of a child’s development. Our outdoor education center is just 15 minutes from Birmingham centre, and provides the perfect opportunity to maximise the benefit of outdoor learning. Our courses can be adapted to suit all age groups from 5yrs - 12 yrs, with flexibility to suit older pupils and teenagers.

Our tailored outdoor education courses include a variety of outdoor learning activities, including: bushcraft, team building, forest school and laser quest. Our outdoor classroom is the perfect place to compliment your day. We are able to work with teachers and youth leaders in order to create bespoke programmes and days out to suit your needs and budgets. All of our courses are delivered by fully qualified instructors, who are DBS cleared and emergency first aiders. The outdoor education activities are focused on encouraging children to widen their friendship groups, to become more self confident resilient, and to promote environmental education.

Paul Cole - Scenario's and games well planned and structured

We took 4 mixed ability / level groups of learners to participate in a paintballing activity at NPF. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves including the staff. The NPF staff informed everyone of the organisations' health and safety policies at the beginning to keep everyone safe during the visit. Scenario's and games well planned and structured. Will definitely be visiting again. Thanks again from everyone at Sandwell College. 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Micky O'Hare - all fantastic

I took 50 students over two days to NPF. I could not fault it. Staff, advice, equipment, instruction, food were all fantastic. My students had a really enjoyable experience in a safe and well controlled environment. The only downside was that they like to shoot me, a lot. I would highly recommend to any other school. Thanks you for a great experience! 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Group of ten pubescent boys taken here for half term, the staff were amazing, two of our group has autism and were given lots of reassurance and support. The ref they had was fantastic and couldn't fault the facilities. Highly recommended 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟
