Forest school nurseries in England

320 nurseriesupdated November 2026

A forest school nursery takes children outdoors regularly, in all weathers, to play, explore and learn in woodland or another natural space. Children climb, dig, build dens, use simple tools and sometimes help with small fires, with trained adults supporting them to take manageable risks. Some nurseries run entirely outdoors; others offer regular forest school sessions as part of the week. All registered settings in England still follow the Early Years Foundation Stage.
