Entry requirements

  • Minimum age is 19 years and you will need to confirm your identity.
  • Fluency in speaking and writing in English as it is a requirement that all delivery and assessment of this qualification is conducted in English.
  • Demonstrate an interest in embracing and promoting Forest School principles in educational settings.  
  • Experience working with children (or other appropriate group). Teaching qualifications are desirable but not essential. 
  • Computer literate - access to and ability to use commonly recognised word processing software packages (such as Microsoft Word), conversant in using internet search engines and websites (including creating and using confidential password access where appropriate) and use of email.

Course location

This is our traditional course requiring five days of attendance on site at our location. The location will be confirmed at the time of booking. Our main site is in Box, Corsham, Wiltshire, SN13 0NS, UK.

Students have attended this course from across the UK, Europe and further-afield, from across the world. If this presents challenges for you then do consider our blended course requiring less attendance time in person, as well as our online course which enables you to complete the course remotely. 

In some cases it may be possible to run the course at your location e.g. pre-school / school and grounds.  This depends on numbers of candidates.  If this is of interest to you then please contact us through our contact page.

In addition to attendance in person you will be offered access to online learning material to support your assignments as you progress through the five units over the year. So you will need to be able to access a reasonable internet connection and to be able to use word processing software to create PDF documents. You will need to carry out practical tasks in your location and setting, as well as complete written assignment work. Provided you meet the entry requirements, your fees are paid up to date and you have completed all assignments to the required standard then you will be able to achieve the qualification.  

Our team may arrange to visit you in your setting as appropriate but this is not mandatory.

Course attendees are from across the world, and the qualification is regulated by Ofqual, the UK Government organisation.
