National Education Nature Park

The National Education Nature Park is a programme to help schools to improve their outdoor space whilst offering children and young people the opportunity to take hands-on action to improve biodiversity and tackle climate change. Schools, colleges and nurseries that sign up have access to a range of resources including digital tools, classroom activities, and an interactive map displaying the growing Nature Park across the school estate.

Every school that registers on the website to join the Nature Park can now access free learning resources and guidance, linked with the National Curriculum, to help them work with children and young people to take positive action for the environment.

Actions pupils could take include:

• increasing the biodiversity of their sites
• developing their climate and nature knowledge
• gaining green skills
