This quality badge is a voluntary option for Outdoor Education Centres and demonstrates a standard classed as excellent in view of learning, teaching, customer care, facilities management, safety, environmental concerns and quality assurance.
Many other organisations gain The Learning Outside the Classroom Quality badge but not at Gold Standard. This is the highest level of award that can be gained within Outdoor Education / Adventure.
Out of all the outdoor centres within the UK there are only 60 that have attained the Gold Standard Badge and Blue Peris was one of the first Outdoor Education centres to gain Gold Approval when it was launched over 4 years ago.
The award is overseen by the Association Heads of Outdoor Education Centres ( AHOEC ) of which the centre is a member. Again this membership is voluntary but we believe it's important to strive to offer the highest provision to young people.
"AHOEC Centres have been at the forefront of delivering innovative, real, and exciting outdoor learning experiences to young people across the UK for over 50 years. This has been achieved by successfully promoting all-round personal development through outdoor education and residential experience"
The award offers numerous benefits to our customers, one of the main outcomes is that many LEA recognise the badge, the result being that schools have to complete less documentation and the process of gaining trip approval is more simple.
We are very proud as a centre and company to have been awarded it for another 2 years and it demonstrates Blue Peris and Fusion Lifestyles vision and commitment to offer the very highest quality at an affordable cost.
