RHET Teacher Training

Periodically RHET holds Teacher Training sessions across Scotland. These sessions take teachers through ways and means to make the most of our services.

A typical session will allow a teacher to:

• become familiar with the work of RHET

• consider using fieldwork for farming and countryside topics as support in covering the existing Environmental Studies Guidelines, and linking it to the Curriculum for Excellence, Determined to Succeed and the Eco Schools programme

• explore the RHET resource materials and identify how we can use them in school

• discuss the support required to teach about and visit the countryside

• become familiar with learning opportunities for pupils and health and safety considerations

• go home with free resources and all the information you need to book a Classroom Talk and Farm Visit!

Events are generally hosted by RHET Countryside Initiatives for teachers in a specific loacl authority.
