Want to get your class out into the built environment? Need resources to back up lessons? Want to find an organisation that can help?

Use our free teaching resources, which provide imaginative and practical ways of engaging young people in their built environment.

Why make use of the built environment?

Whether it is in a building of architectural or historical note, the local high street or the school itself, learning in the built environment brings the curriculum to life. It provides new ways of learning, enhances pupil motivation and encourages the development of social and lifelong learning skills.

Furthermore, it invites pupils to approach the places and spaces they inhabit from different perspectives, encouraging long-term engagement and a realisation that, as young people, they have a valid contribution to make to the development of their local area.
