Harewood Estate ED1: Educational Access Funding Thank you for your interest in funded educational visits at Harewood. This funding programme aims to support schools who may face barriers to accessing outdoor learning, heritage experiences & environmental education. Please complete the form below. Applications will be reviewed by the Learning Team across Harewood. Please note that funding does not include transportation to Harewood.

During busy periods we may not be able to offer you the exact date you ask for, so we ask for alternatives.

Thanks to funding provided through our partnership with Natural England & our Higher Tier Countryside Stewardship agreement, Harewood Estate is able to offer a programme of fully funded educational visits for eligible schools & educational groups. These visits provide children & young people with meaningful opportunities to explore the natural environment, connect with food, farming and conservation & develop a deeper understanding of how landscapes are managed for people & wildlife. Available throughout the year, each visit is shaped by the changing seasons & the work taking place across the Estate. Activities may include habitat exploration, wildlife surveys, conservation tasks, livestock encounters, landscape investigations, pond studies, invasive species management & seasonal nature based experiences. All visits are designed to support curriculum learning whilst encouraging curiosity, wellbeing & a connection to our wild spaces.

Funded visits are available to eligible schools & educational groups.  Priority is given to schools serving communities with higher levels of disadvantage & those with limited access to high quality, natural green spaces.

Please refer to the session on our website for required staff to pupil rations. Other than SEND groups, education groups are required to have 10+ pupils to qualify for our learning rates.
