Meet Jason Wood
EcoRangers creator, trainer and mentor

Teacher, Senior Leader , outdoor educator.

I’ve spent decades helping young people learn and thrive—from geography teaching to  rock climbing to surf therapy. Supporting our most vulnerable learners  and inspiring inclusioni has always been at the heart of my work. I bring extensive experience coaching teachers, teaching assitants and those working with young people.

My work has been nationally recognised,   featured in the  Times Education Commission and at the Council for  Learning Outside the Classroom and in publications like SENDCO update.  My coaching and training  has been described as joyful and inspiring.

I love this work, and I’ve seen the difference it can make to young people first hand. Through EcoRangers, I’ll share that experience, support your development, and learn alongside you.
