Accreditations for learning outside the classroom

LOtC Site Provider Award

Since the launch of the LOtC Quality Badge in February 2009, there have been a great number of enquiries from organisations who welcome educational visits to their site, but don’t provide any direct educational services. These organisations cannot meet the criteria for the LOtC Quality Badge; however they provide such a vital tool for teachers to facilitate frequent, continuous and progressive learning outside the classroom for their pupils that CLOtC has now developed a national award scheme to recognise this. The LOtC Site Provider Award indicates good quality LOtC facilitation and effective risk management.

The LOtC Site Provider Award is intended to recognise those organisations which actively welcome schools onto their site/s and ensure that the sites and any other services provided meet the needs of schools. The award criteria also provide a framework for site providers to ensure that their provision meets the needs of users.
