What Does the Learning Outside the Classroom Quality Badge Represent?


The LOtC Quality Badge is a national accreditation that evaluates both the quality of risk management and educational provision for learning outside the classroom experiences. From museums and zoos to outdoor activity centres like Mendip Activity Centre, the badge serves as a trusted indicator of quality, recognised by the Department for Education.


This certification reinforces our dedication to providing safe, adventurous, and impactful outdoor learning experiences that help young people build confidence, resilience, and a deeper connection with the natural world.
