What you’ll learn

Grow confident identifying and understanding the living world around you:

  • Wildlife ID: mammals, birds, amphibians, insects & tracks/signs
     
  • Trees & Shrubs: leaf, bark and bud ID; native vs. non-native; seasonal changes
     
  • Wild Plants: common flowers & grasses, habitats, ethics of foraging (look-don’t-pick)
     
  • Ecosystems: food webs, pollination, conservation and biodiversity basics
     
  • Fieldcraft: using keys, notebooks & photos, safe & respectful outdoor practice
     

Every topic builds from first steps to advanced recognition with quizzes, flashcards and real-life mini-surveys.

Built for the DofE Skills section

 

Our programme is structured to match what DofE assessors look for:

  • Regular Commitment: plan for about 1 hour per week over the required months
     
  • Clear Goals: set personalised nature-study goals (e.g., “ID 30 native trees by leaf and bark”)
     
  • Progression: levelled modules, show improvement over time
     
  • Personal Involvement: hands-on activities outdoors or from home (accessible options included)
     
  • Evidence & Assessment: automatic activity log, photo portfolio, skill reflections and an Assessor Report generator
     

We’re aligned to DofE Skills guidance. We’re not an official endorsement body, we simply make completing your Skills section simpler, clearer and more enjoyable.

It’s almost here!

The date is approaching fast and we’re making preparations. 

Keep an Eye Out!
