From 11th September, our new Team Wildlife 'Learn and Play' sessions will be starting! 🌳

Primarily designed for ages 5+, these stay and play style sessions will include natural history learning activities and resources for scavenger hunts in the woods, alongside the invitation to play and move! Each week will be seasonally themed with a different nature focus. 🦊🐞🍄

At this point, no food will be provided, but feel free to bring your own (nut-free, please!) Younger siblings are welcome, but all children are their parent/carer's responsibility. :)

🌿 We are Recruiting at Forest School for Life, Silfield Norfolk

We are looking for people who come alive outdoors.

If you can follow a child’s lead through brambles, mud kitchens and moments of pure curiosity, you might be exactly who we need.

We are seeking five bank staff for irregular hours. These roles may grow into permanent positions for the right candidates.

A six week trial period is offered.

We are also recruiting for a one year Maternity Cover SENDCO position from October 2026 to October 2027 for two days a week, all year round. This role sits within our management team and plays a key part in shaping our inclusive outdoor practice. You will brief staff, support reflective conversations, champion child led learning and help us embed our vision for nature based inclusion across the whole provision.

We need experienced, enthusiastic practitioners who understand nature based learning and who know how powerful it is when children lead their own discoveries. You will need maturity, humour and experience supporting younger children outdoors, along with the ability to represent our brand with professionalism and warmth.

Please submit a CV and a covering letter explaining why you want to work with us by the 30th July to [email protected]. You must be able to provide two references and have experience of working outdoors and or be Forest School trained.

Interviews will be scheduled on Friday 31st July, Friday 21st August and Friday 4th September. You must be available for one of these dates.

You must have Paediatric First Aid, Safeguarding training and an up to date DBS. We run a safer recruitment process.
