BASC to School
Find out more about how we introduce tens-of-thousands of children and young people to shooting and the countryside every year.
BASC to School is a wide-ranging initiative that provides tens-of-thousands of children and young people with the opportunity to learn about the countryside, land management and the importance of shooting to rural life and conservation through a range of educational events across the country.
We work in partnership with schools, colleges, charities and other learning providers, as well as farmers, agricultural societies, land managers, moorland groups and emergency services to help young people develop an affinity with our countryside and those who manage it.
Here you will find all our latest news and updates on our work to help children and young people from all over the UK connect with shooting and rural life.
If you have an event you’d like to tell us about, get in touch by emailing us here or use #BASCtoSchool on social media.
