FMC’s feedback on Outdoor Education changes
Federated Mountain Clubs of New Zealand (FMC) submitted feedback opposing government proposals to move Outdoor Education (OE) out of the NCEA senior curriculum and into a vocational subject stream. Outdoor Education provides unique place-based learning, builds transferable skills across the curriculum, and supports the physical, mental and social wellbeing of young people. Removing it from the curriculum risks reducing student access, wasting schools’ investments, and limiting the domestic workforce for the adventure tourism sector.
FMC recommends that Outdoor Education remain a senior curriculum subject for Years 12 and 13.
