The Manifesto for Learning Outside the Classroom partnership has created this resource with the help of many experts and practitioners in learning outside the classroom. The resource is designed to help professionals working with young people aged 0–19 to provide high-quality experiences.
Our vision
We believe that every young person should experience the world beyond the classroom as an essential part of learning and personal development, whatever their age, ability or circumstances.
Here you will find:
Why not try 'Who am I?' to get started – it identifies areas of the site likely to be helpful to people in different professional roles.
Over the coming months the site will become more interactive and more guidance, case studies and resources will be added.
We welcome your feedback and comments so please do contact us at enquiries@lotc.org.uk
