At Gartmore Primary School in Stirling Council, HM Inspectors noted that children’s learning is enhanced by effective use of the school environment and surrounding area. This develops their understanding of sustainability and provides quality outdoor learning experiences. Partnerships with parents, community members, charities and organisations enrich children’s learning experiences outdoors.

A sketchnote has been developed to capture some of this work. Additionally, the headteacher has developed a blog which tells how the school has developed its approach to learning for sustainability and outdoor learning.

The recovery update reflects on what has changed and what may be developed further as the school progresses though this recovery year.
