“Lära med häst” (Learning with horses) is built on experience-based learning together with horses. Among other things, the programme is used to improve attendance among pupils with high absence and to develop young people’s social skills.
How it works
Participants meet in small groups of at most 8 people, for 5 sessions with no more than a week between them. Each session is about 1.5 hours. The school provides a teacher and transport – alternatively a parent comes along.
Homework help at the stables
The club also offers homework sessions at the stables, where the horses (and the dog!) help create a calm place to study – work that has been featured in national media.
