Learning Outside the Classroom

The Meadows School has embedded Learning Outside the Classroom (LOtC) and Outdoor Education as an intergral part of the students' learning experience in every Key Stage.

Learning throughout the school happens within and beyond the Classroom for all students and all classes incorporate a substantial part of the curriculum to include LOtC and Outdoor Education.

LOtC takes the students away from the walls of the classroom to other locations and venues to enhance their learning with more experiential learning opportunities.
