WHAT SCHOOLS SAY
“Our children are loving being outside and active whilst learning at the same time. The resources are all planned and prepared which has supported staff to access the opportunities without adding to their workload. We were most impressed with the professional and quick response from all involved from the online web demo to the set up, the training and the ongoing support offered. Michael (Cross-Curricular Orienteering trainer) has been amazing, delivering very clear and precise training – thank you.”

“Brilliant! Cross-Curricular Orienteering actively encourages children to work together while promoting health and fitness. It gives teachers the opportunity to use the outdoor space around
the school promoting and developing teamwork and leadership through map reading and solving problems. We were so impressed with the professionalism and enthusiasm of Will (Cross-Curricular Orienteering trainer) and the value for money we received!”

“By setting up the courses and providing all the resources and training, Cross-Curricular Orienteering have provided us with a way of working that is stress free for the teachers and a fun, active and collaborative way of learning for the children. An all-encompassing approach which hits on government targets to improve physical activity without functioning as an addon, something else to fit in to a hectic timetable. A truly holistic approach to learning. The bespoke service offered by Will and Michael is outstanding. Regular communication, emails answered promptly. Questions and problems solved immediately and just an all-round service that builds confidence in the user to embrace the scheme”

“It certainly helps with our 30 active minutes both in break times and during lesson times. It is very minimal on teacher workload which is fantastic, and our games leaders will have another fantastic opportunity to build on their skills. The set up was efficient and support is there when we need it”

“The CCO scheme helps in so many ways, ranging from giving the children a tool to become more physically active in both PE and across the curriculum. Even after the first couple of
sessions I could see how much the children have to think and apply their skills and knowledge. It plays a huge role in moving our P.E. provisions forward, in lessons, competitions and in
leadership activities!”

“Cross Curricular Orienteering has been used to increase activity levels in PE, broadened our curriculum at KS3 and KS4 and allowed other subjects to inspire the students through activity and learning. The maps are great and give the right level of detail to allow the students to navigate. The training really helped us get started and gave us the skills to introduce orienteering gradually.”
