4.2. Develop a communication strategy to exchange information with those assisting a ForestSchool programme and other interested parties.
Forest School Communication
Lines of communications are important in any business scenario with other stakeholders at
your Forest School, especially as it starts to grow. The following document presents different
ways of displaying a Communication Programme for a prospective Forest School.
Communicating with Landowners, Site Management, grounds people etc:
Communicating changes to people in varying areas, activities running and checking these
areas are available and safe to use is essential.in establishing a Communication Programme, it
is best practice to discuss the most efficient form of communication with the individual you
must contact.
Communicating with my assistants/ Forest School staff:
When visiting the FS site assistance is provided by other staff members. Communication with
FS staff is imperative as session information has to be provided to theses staff to facilitate the
sessions, along with health and safety and alternatives should the weather be too inclement to
be able to access the outdoors. It would be beneficial for these staff to have a basic
understanding of the ethos of Forest School to ensure that our sessions are consistent.
Parents
Communication is via written letters / or flyers and the Tim’s Wood website. Follow up
Important information is sent by reminders to parents’ text and email and is also available
upon the website. I have access to emergency contact details during the session – whilst
making sure I also comply with Data Protection. Updates on what we have done or achieved
are done via Facebook, Instagram and Twitter Feeds.
Communicating with other practitioners:
In order to be abreast of current and recent updates and it is essential to maintain and update
Forest School Skills. A way to achieve this is to share your experiences with other
practitioners locally, nationally, and internationally. There are a variety of local/national
associations which you can join e.g. The Forest School Association.
Keeping skills fresh by attending refreshers and new training courses will ensure that you
learn new methods and ideas to keep your own program contemporaneous. It’s also a
wonderful opportunity to network with other Forest School Practitioners.
