Forest School Leader – Level 3 Qualified

Do you have a passion for outdoor learning and enjoy creating exciting opportunities for children to learn beyond the classroom?

We are looking for a Level 3 qualified and trained Forest School Leader (with previous session delivery experience) to join a welcoming school, delivering engaging outdoor sessions to pupils from EYFS through to Year 6.

The successful candidate will be responsible for planning and leading safe, stimulating and inclusive Forest School sessions, adapting activities to suit different ages, abilities and learning needs.

You will also deliver smaller intervention groups, supporting children’s personal development, confidence, communication and social skills through outdoor learning.

When not leading Forest School sessions, you may be asked to support pupils within the classroom or assist with other outdoor activities.

Therefore, you must be flexible, adaptable and confident working with children with a range of SEND needs.

The ideal candidate will be:

  • Level 3 qualified and trained as a Forest School Leader.

  • Experienced planning and delivering engaging outdoor sessions.

  • Confident working with children from EYFS to Year 6.

  • Familiar with SEND needs and adapting activities accordingly.

  • Confident leading small group interventions.

  • Knowledgeable about outdoor risk assessments and health and safety.

  • Flexible and happy supporting both classroom and outdoor learning.

  • Passionate about helping children develop through practical experiences.

If you love outdoor education and want to help children learn, explore and develop new skills in an engaging environment, we would love to hear from you!
