A Bill to require that every child be offered at least one outdoor education experience during primary school years and at least one such experience during secondary school years; and for connected purposes.
The Outdoor Education Bill would require every child to be offered at least one outdoor education experience during primary school years and at least one during secondary school years. It focuses on offering outdoor learning opportunities, not forcing attendance, with delivery details to be worked out as the bill progresses. The bill places duties on schools to arrange these offers and on others involved in education to support them.
The bill is at the 2nd Reading in the Commons. It will proceed to Committee for detailed examination, then Report and Third Reading, and would need to pass to the House of Lords to become law.
