Transforming Teaching with Nature
We have launched a new online teacher training course aiming to support you with the skills and confidence to deliver nature-connected learning, indoors and outdoors, with our conservation expertise and practical teaching resources.
The four-week course will explore the foundations of outdoor learning, including the benefits for pupil engagement, wellbeing and nature connectedness. It also covers biodiversity basics, school grounds activities, curriculum connections through real-world conservation case studies and downloadable resources and activities.

Inside Nature: A Teacher's Toolkit
Bring authentic science into your classroom with this two-week, self-paced course inspired by ZSL's Inside Nature. In November 2025, ZSL launched Inside Nature, a first of it's kind educational resource which transforms post-mortems into accessible, curriculum-linked learning resources. This short training course for teachers, shows you how to embed these resources in your lessons.
Explore how pathologists investigate animal health and use real-world case studies to support conservation. You'll be supported to integrate these resources into your lesson plans and discover practical ways to adapt these stories for different learners. Designed for secondary and Level 2 biology, biological science, and animal care educators, this course helps teachers to connect real-world biology with curriculum learning.
