Abstract

As a thesis, I have conducted a survey in collaboration with the technical administration Borås city, which deals with examining elementary schools and preschools use of school forests. And look at how it can develop in the future to better match the educational activities.

The survey was done because I am interested in the more social values that a forest can embarrass and highlight the importance of staying out in the forest. It is important to work for children and young people to have good opportunities to have school to some extent outside.

These answers showed surprisingly big differences between primary and lower secondary school and use school forests. From the majority of respondents, many wanted more information and help to develop the use of school forests. The survey also demonstrated a great interest from schools for these issues. Surveys provide answers to the different requirements that elementary schools and preschools have in the school forests and provide opportunities for improvement of the forest forests, both in Borås city and in a broader perspective.

Specifically, it provides answers to which schools want help with the creation and development of school forests. It shows the differences in the use and requirements between primary and lower secondary schools and preschools. This provides a good basis for well-adapted school forests for each activity.

One big question is how to make it even more accessible for schools to use school forests in everyday life. One word is that it must be easy to use.
