Our Home Ed group is tailored for children & teenagers aged 8-17 years who are in Home Education. It runs throughout the year in term time with a varied programme designed to work with the seasons. We keep our ratios low to ensure plenty of Coach time for each individual. Our programme aims to engage & educate children in a variety of life skills & curriculum based learning as well as offering the physical, mental and social benefits that come with being active & in nature. For weekly aims and updates, join our Facebook group - Parents space - Home Ed.
