Countryside Educational Visits Accreditation Scheme (CEVAS)
Is CEVAS for me?
Are you a farmer who encourages educational visits to your farm?
Are you thinking of making your farm available to schools in the future?
Would you enjoy giving talks to school children about farming and the countryside?
CEVAS was established in 2003 to help farmers and growers ensure that schools are guaranteed safe and worthwhile visits to all kinds of farms.
The course is suitable for all farmers, whether or not you already have experience of school visits, and countryside education staff. The course has three units:
1. preparing for countryside visits;
2. food, farming and the countryside in the National Curriculum
3. talking to pupils and teachers.
As part of the course, you will prepare a portfolio for assessment by the Open College Network. Tutor support will be available outside the course sessions
Approximately 1000 farmers have now passed through the scheme and are qualified. They are entitled to display the trained personnel logo that more and more schools are recognising as the sign of a high quality visit and farm experience.
