Ethical Understanding

Outdoor learning can focus on the importance of treating others with integrity, fairness and compassion, and valuing and respecting diversity and equality for all.

Students can examine ethical principles and codes of practice appropriate to the natural environment. As students explore concepts and consequences of equitable participation, empathy and respect, they develop skills to make ethical decisions and understand the consequences of their actions. They also develop the capacity to apply these skills in everyday situations.
