Learning Journeys
~ creating a global learning experience at KS2

Taking a ‘learning journey’ outside of the classroom can serve as a powerful stimulus to engage children with complex issues.

This publication shares work from Birmingham Primary schools, which participated in the Botanical Journey project at the city’s Botanical Gardens.

The project took children on a learning journey where they played the part of plant hunters – both through role play and in ‘real time’.
How can we create powerful experiences and meaningful learning journeys for the children we teach?
