Our outdoor education programme stands at the heart of Releasing Potential's philosophy, offering transformative experiences that reveal capabilities many young people never knew they possessed.

Releasing Potential Outdoors

The transformative impact of outdoor education

Our outdoor education provision creates unique contexts where young people can:

  • Experience themselves in new light, discovering capabilities beyond perceived limitations
  • Develop authentic confidence through genuine achievement
  • Build trust in themselves and others through managed risk experiences
  • Learn practical skills with real-world applications
  • Strengthen emotional regulation through challenging yet supportive experiences
  • Connect with natural environments, fostering environmental awareness

Accessing outdoor provision

Our outdoor education experiences are available through multiple pathways:

  • Alternative Provision: Flexible engagement options for young people in need of alternative, specialised part-time educational activities.
  • Integrated into our School’s curriculum: Outdoor activities are a core component of Releasing Potential School student’s education.
  • Bespoke Programmes: Tailored outdoor experiences for external organisations and groups.
