Field Studies Council Primary resources

The Fields Studies Council (FSC) has collated a whole host of useful FSC resources to help support pupils whilst they are learning from home. Their primary resources are based on activites children can do in their gardens or local green space which focus on geography and science to help them keep connected to nature.

 

#FieldworkLive

Last Spring the FSC launched and delivered #FieldworkLive, a two-week programme of live fieldwork sessions focusing on a range of Geography and Science content. Recordings of the live lessons are available here:
