Why Outdoor Learning? At Stanford we recognise the value of
Outdoor Learning and how beneficial this is to child development. Research evidence shows that learning outside the classroom can have a powerfully motivating effect on young people and a beneficial impact on learning, understanding, behaviour and well-being and health.
