About your mentor
Coast and Forest Education
Forest School Practitioner, Trainer & IQA
I have been practising Forest School since 2010 and delivering Forest School Training since 2014 across Southern England. I am an Endorsed Forest school Trainer with the Forest school Association. I have over 25 years of environmental education experience. My tutoring experience doesn't stop at Forest School - I am also a qualified First Aid trainer and have tutored a range of outdoor and sports qualifications. I am passionate about Forest School - Forest School. It was a life changing approach to educating and engaging with the outdoors through a learner led approach and investigative in design rather than traditional learning styles in outdoor education. My own Forest School company (Coast and Forest Education) and previously sat on the Forest School Association (FSA) board. My particular specialities are working with groups with special education needs on a long-term basis and sharing knowledge and skills on the importance of physical play in childhood. I take great delight in seeing individuals grow.
