These guys are the best. The directors are passionate about the outdoors, they enthusiastically encourage others to explore and learn in multiple different ways. Their expeditions are second to none and their approach with schools is fantastic. The education programmes within the outdoor environment are linked to the National Curriculum; most other providers do not have this positive approach; this approach makes it easy for teachers and students alike to relax into the wilderness. read less

Our Y7 bushcraft experience was truly transformative for our pupils. They tackled a huge range of challenging tasks under the expert supervision of Mat Barnsley and the Really Wild Team. They developed skills of grit and self-reliance that will serve them well in their school lives.Really Wild Education’s expert coaches deserve the highest plaudits. Their carefully planned programme and emphasis on children being self-sufficient (the pupils did the cooking and washing up, too!) were hugely valuable. And the team’s professionalism and proactive attitude meant the accompanying teachers had a relaxing and fun time, too! read less
