Glenburn ASN School, Inverclyde – Outdoor Learning
Glenburn ASN school in Inverclyde realised that a number of pupils were unable to access mainstream Scouting clubs in the local area. Staff worked with local Scout leaders to establish their own Scouting group within the school. A new group was created – the 60th Greenock & District Scouting Group. This group is unique in Scotland as they meet within school time. Links were made to Article 15 of the UNCRC – Children have the right to join groups, and additional links were made with outdoor learning and the Curriculum for Excellence. The school created a powerpoint presentation and presented this at a recent Education Scotland Event on outdoor learning.
Pupils are able to access a number of activities that they would be unable to do in school, and have great fun. All pupils are able to work towards being awarded badges while developing skills, confidence and friendships.
