Our outdoor classrooms for schools are designed to provide unique and inspiring spaces that take education beyond the traditional four walls. Built to order, our range of outdoor classrooms, shelters, and seating solutions offer schools and other educational establishments the opportunity to create memorable teaching spaces that blend the benefits of nature with the necessities of modern education. These outdoor classrooms provide a sheltered area for children to play and learn, while also protecting them from harmful UV rays and wet weather. With the addition of educational facilities such as seating and shelter, outdoor classrooms offer a versatile and exciting environment for students to learn and grow.
Our Journey with Outdoor Classrooms
For over 20 years, Creative Play UK has been at the forefront of designing, building, and installing high-quality playground equipment, including an impressive selection of outdoor classrooms for schools. Our experience and commitment to excellence have allowed us to create outdoor learning spaces that not only meet educational needs but also inspire both teachers and students. Not only are our designs impeccable, but so is our entire process. We manage the entire process for you, from planning permission to the on-site build itself, meaning your school can focus on other important matters.
Types of Outdoor Classrooms We Offer
We provide a wide selection of outdoor classrooms for educational institutions, each tailored to meet specific requirements and available space. Our options include:
- Half Shelters and Full Shelters: These provide flexible learning spaces that can be customised based on your specific requirements. Whether you need a space with open sides for a more immersive outdoor experience or a fully enclosed shelter for added protection, we have the solution.
- Classrooms with or without Floors: Depending on your preference, we offer outdoor classrooms with durable flooring options or those that integrate directly with the natural ground, allowing children to stay connected with nature.
These outdoor classrooms are suitable for students of all ages, from primary schools to secondary schools, providing a versatile space for learning, creativity, and exploration.
The Benefits of Outdoor Classrooms
Integrating outdoor classrooms for schools into your educational environment offers numerous benefits:
1. A Change of Scenery
A welcome diversion from the conventional indoor classroom environment is offered by learning outside. This shift in environment can help re-energise students, making them more receptive to learning. The novelty of an outdoor classroom can reignite their enthusiasm for subjects that might seem mundane in a conventional classroom.
2. Physical and sensory engagement
Outdoor classrooms offer additional physical and sensory benefits of outdoor learning that can significantly enhance learning. The combination of fresh air, natural light, and the tactile experiences of the outdoors can help children focus better and engage more fully with their lessons. This environment is particularly beneficial for sensory learning, where the surrounding nature aids in stimulating students’ senses, leading to more effective learning outcomes.
3. Utilising Outdoor Spaces
Utilising the outdoors and available outdoor spaces to their fullest potential is one of the main benefits of outdoor classrooms for educational institutions. These classrooms allow students to enjoy the benefits of natural light and fresh air, which are known to improve concentration and overall well-being. An outdoor classroom also provides a comfortable and adaptable learning environment throughout the year, offering shelter from the winter cold and shade during the summer months. Additionally, studies have shown that outdoor classrooms can lead to improved behaviour in students, as they are able to release excess energy and connect with nature and their natural environment.
