The South Downs National Park is the ultimate outdoor classroom offering opportunities to discover, explore, investigate, understand and enjoy the mosaic of habitats and cultural heritage that makes the South Downs National Park so special.
Before your visit

- Take a look at the National Park UK website for further guidance.
- Ensure you meet the health and safety requirements
- Encourage your staff and students to think creatively about how your group will reduce your impact on the environment during your visit.

We also offer an Outdoor Learning Grant to Schools and Colleges visiting the South Downs National Park. This can help with the costs of a trip by contributing towards the transport and learning providers fees.
