[Wandering Eyes]

Racing to School has had its accreditation by the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom (CLOtC) extended for a further two years, the organisation announced Monday. The charity offers young people a high-quality outdoor learning experience and introduces many participants to horse racing for the first time by bringing the curriculum to life using racing's unique venues.

John Blake, Chief Executive of Racing to School said, “To be awarded the Learning Outside the Classroom (LOtC) Quality Badge once again is testament to our team's efforts to achieve high quality nterventions for our beneficiaries, even as we have expanded our work to record levels.”

Held by some of the leading providers of educational visits, the LOtC Quality Badge is endorsed by the Department for Education and the Outdoor Education Advisers' Panel Cymru.

Dr Anne Hunt, Chief Executive of CLOtC said: “Educational visits are among the most memorable experiences in a child's school life. The LOtC Quality Badge offers teachers the reassurance that the venue is providing high quality educational experiences and have the appropriate risk management structures in place, meaning less paperwork for schools and peace of mind for teachers. I congratulate Racing to School on being awarded the LOtC Quality Badge.”
