Changing lives. Changing futures.
@theland
Offering educational experiences based around land and animals.
Our Provisions
@theland offers a diverse range of personalized courses to cater to everyone's unique learning style. We believe that education should not be one-size-fits-all and that everyone has their own path to success. That is why we offer the following opportunities that focus on gaining a wide variety of skills through meaningful activities. The areas of learning will include;
-
Animal care
-
Ground maintenance and conservation
-
Horticulture
-
Farming and agriculture
-
A range of photography, woodwork, cooking, and art. mindfulness, and wellbeing.
@theland also focuses on social and emotional skills especially for those with SEMH, by providing time spent with the animals and the outdoors coupled with projects to build self-esteem and confidence.
The benefits of learning outside is a well researched topic and findings claim that people who spend time in the outdoors doing physical work have more positive mental health and a drive to succeed.
-
Completing physically active jobs to benefit health and fitness.
-
Undertaking meaningful jobs within a working piece of land.
-
Developing interaction and social skills.
-
Developing employability skills in animal care, horticulture and ground care that can support future prospects.
The provision is available all through term time between the hours of 10am until 2pm. Half days are also available subject to availability.
Taster sessions and integration meetings are highly recommended to establish the provision’s suitability for the individual and to formulate their timetable.
Visitors to the land receive personalised targets to work towards and receive a certificate of achievement when the module is complete.
In the future
We are hoping to start to open up accredited courses through AQA in
-
Animal care
-
Ground maintenance and conservation
-

-
Farming and agriculture
