Drop-off Home Ed Sessions
Join us for 3-hours of drop-off group tuition at our purpose built log cabin and garden setting. In small groups of 8, and in age ranges from 4-8, 8-12 and 12+years these sessions are an incredible opportunity to socialise, learn and build a wonderful Home Ed community.
Sessions run in 6 weeks blocks with a fire-circle ‘parents evening' after the last session. A yearly planner is available and students attending 5 or more blocks are invited to an end of year Bushcraft camping trip at our private woodland just an hour from Base Camp.
Sessions are child-centred where children are involved in deciding part of the theme for the 6 weeks. Whether it be space, enterprise or animal care, no 6 weeks will look the same. These bespoke sessions will be seamlessly entwined with numeracy and literacy practice, well-being and nature study. From growing and cooking from the allotment and greenhouse, crafting, fire-making, woodworking, yoga and much more, the sessions will organically run to fit in with the groups’ interests.
Prices are £288 for 6 weeks. (Equating to £48 a ‘drop-off’/ £16 an hour. This includes all preparation, resources, optional work to be completed at home, snacks, drinks, and the additional hour's fire circle for parents)
Sessions start July 14th 2025

Tuition in the Woods
Have a child mad about the outdoors? Or a wish to get your child outdoors more? Or do you have a reluctant learner or school refuser? Or just looking for an academic and forest school mash up?! Whatever the reason, these tuition sessions are a fantastic way to instil a love of learning. Whether it's practising literacy through nature journaling, physics and maths through creating catapults and measuring trees, or crafting and forest bathing. These bespoke sessions can be tailored to meet your child's needs, at any age. There are hundreds of opportunities to learn in a woodland setting and no walls to bounce off, when the walls are removed.
These sessions are also great for SEMH, SEND, EOTAS or children with an EHCP - please enquire today to see how Base Camp Education can assist.
Prices start from £35 for group, £50 1-1
