Forest Schools: The Research Evidence, edited by Mark Brundrett, Elizabeth Malone and Avril Rowley, published by Routledge.

ASPE is proud to announce that the editors of the 3-13 journal have compiled articles, originally published in Education 3-13, around the fascinating topic of Forest Schools.

Interest in Forest Schools has seen a phenomenal rise in recent years in many countries around the globe with thousands of children now experiencing this new context for learning. Forest Schools have also provided a new focus for researchers wishing to find out more about the opportunities and benefits that can be derived from this specific form of outdoor learning. This text brings together a wealth of material from academics, independent researchers and practitioners who have explored this topic in detail and will be of interest to academic researchers, those undertaking their own research on this and related topics for undergraduate and higher degrees, and to practitioners and school leaders who wish to find out more about this intriguing approach to the education of children.
