Prehistoric hunting technology

Rupert is a former head of science, a bushcraft instructor, an outdoor enthusiast and has just completed a MSc in Experimental Archaeology. He has been a regular presenter at the NTC and also presents at the IOL Bushcraft conference and later this year will be presenting an outdoor learning research paper, co-written with one of his schools, at the IOERC in Oslo. His company, Feral Science, is a science education provider that takes traditional curriculum science topics and delivers them in the outdoors with a hands-on, experiential twist. It’s about learning by doing, ditching desks and getting students actively involved in the natural world. Feral Science also create plans, resources, kits and CPD training to support teaching outdoors in this way; reworking established curricula to take advantage of the opportunities offered by being outdoors. “Curriculum-linked science taught where the learning feels like an adventure, not a worksheet.”
