Support package for Secondary Schools (BGE)

The John Muir Trust is providing additional support for secondary practitioners, particularly within the Broad General Education who are looking to use the John Muir Award as part of a recovery curriculum.
There is a planning tool for meeting the Award challenges across curriculum subject areas and a suite of ready to go lesson ideas that you can make use of in school or as remote learning tasks (see attached).  These lesson ideas are also collated here in a visual format using Sway in this padlet.
