The PARS model provides outdoor education practitioners with practical, research-informed ways to make sense of real moments: how children create their own learning opportunities, exploring risk, collaborating, testing ideas and boundaries and learning from their successes and failures.
Using PARS helps outdoor education practitioners to notice, describe and understand what is happening in children's play and learning outdoors - without turning practice into an adult-driven checklist.
Outdoor practitioners have found that PARS gives teams a shared language that supports clearer understanding of children's self-directed learning, more consistent practice, and more confident professional judgement when talking with colleagues and families.
