The National Guidance has been prepared by the Outdoor Education Advisers’ Panel.
This guidance provides the key reference for sound planning for learning and recreational activities that involve taking groups of children and young people away from their usual operational base. It should be implemented when an establishment or setting uses places such as:
- the establishment’s own grounds
- the local environment
- places further afield e.g. visits to local libraries, museums and theatres etc.
- residential venues
- learning ventures abroad
