Launching the Learning Outside the Classroom Manifesto at the Natural History Museum, Mr Johnson urged schools to use the wealth of educational opportunities on their doorsteps and further afield, to inspire and motivate every pupil. It is the first time a Government has committed itself to making learning outside the classroom an integral part of school life, with the Manifesto setting out specific measures to help schools widen access to high quality educational experiences for every young person. Mr Johnson said: “Learning outside the classroom should be at the heart of every school’s curriculum and ethos. “Children can gain valuable learning experiences from going on cultural visits overseas to teachers simply using their school grounds imaginatively. Educational visits and out-of-school teaching can bring learning to life by deepening young people’s understanding of the environment, history and culture and improving their personal development.”
