‘A completely different space’: Teachers' perspectives on disadvantage, access to nature and outdoor learning

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examined teachers' perspectives on how children benefit from time in nature, how disadvantage shapes access and the role of schools in facilitating such access. Drawing on interviews conducted in 2022 with 25 UK primary school teachers who participated in Generation Wild, a nature connection programme for schools in economically ...
