Outdoor Learning is important to all young people.
The OEAP support all staff in Children's Services taking young people outside to learn.

The OEAP offer practical help, advice and support to staff taking children off site, to a range of different environments from local areas, museums, places of worship, visits abroad and into adventure activities. The OEAP is not just about climbing and canoeing but ensuring that staff have access to high quality advice to ensure that young people have enriched learning opportunities.
The OEAP have a commitment, along with other organisations, to ensure that high quality outdoor learning takes place on establishment sites and have produced the new outdoor learning cards.
