What learning outcomes are you trying to achieve?

Whether you are a teacher, youth worker, care assistant, learning mentor or voluntary leader, being clear about what you want to achieve for your group is an important starting point. It will help you decide:

  • what the most appropriate learning outside the classroom activity is
  • how to plan and organise the learning experience
  • how well have you achieved your outcomes.

For the garden’s Creativity Courtyard, we made a gabion basket full of local Jurassic pebbles and, as its centrepiece, a polished stone map of Devon showing the location of our school. This was sculpted by a local craftsman from a pupil’s design.
