For Teach­ers & Educators

Every­thing you need to deliv­er the curriculum
through food and farm­ing expe­ri­ences — both
on the farm and in class­room settings.

LEAF Education works across the education, farming and food sectors to inspire, engage and mobilise farmers and teachers about the value of farming in a learning context.

We deliver practical training, resources and activities that help deliver curriculum-linked learning through food and farming experiences, both in and out of the classroom.

We offer train­ing days for teach­ers, includ­ing ini­tial teacher train­ing (ITT) and accred­it­ed CPD, cov­er­ing all key stages. Or we can devel­op bespoke train­ing for your spe­cif­ic needs.

“The children really enjoyed the tour of the farm and being able to go into the field to see the animals close up; a real chance to get out of the classroom environment and continue learning.”

“It really opened my eyes to see how a farm is run as a multi-million pound business,and to think about all the decisions the farmer has to make, not just what crops to grow.”
