Our Forest School
Forest School at Overseal Primary School
Our children have the opportunity to shine through our dedicated Forest School provision. We are proud to have a fully trained Forest School practitioner, Mrs Julie Groom, who leads this valuable aspect of our curriculum. Every class experiences our Forest School each year, ensuring all pupils benefit from this enriching opportunity.
We believe this strong personal development offer helps children to build character, confidence and resilience, while becoming increasingly independent.
Most importantly, it allows children to simply be children—learning outdoors, playing and making happy memories. This is central to our commitment to delivering a positive primary education that every child deserves.
"The forest school provision, where pupils learn outdoors, is a popular and beneficial feature of the school's curriculum." Ofsted 2026
