Background to course: The Curriculum for Excellence 3-18 is now embedded in the working of Scottish schools – the process has been unsettling and sometimes confusing for Rangers, let alone schools and teachers. This is an opportunity to clarify, reflect, and identify the opportunities Rangers have in developing their work with schools, in the context of the new Curriculum for Excellence 3-18, and associated clarification of the place for outdoor learning and sustainable development education.
