# Learning Landscapes Ltd
Learning Landscapes Ltd is a specialist school grounds design and construction company based in Otley, serving educational institutions across West Yorkshire. With over 15 years of hands-on experience, they transform outdoor spaces into stimulating, functional environments that enhance children's learning and wellbeing.
The company works exclusively with schools to create bespoke outdoor areas including wildlife gardens, vegetable patches, outdoor classrooms, shade structures, seating areas, and accessible pathways. Their approach is grounded in practical expertise—the team holds formal qualifications in Landscape Design and Conservation, alongside health and safety accreditation and CRB clearance.
What distinguishes Learning Landscapes is their genuine understanding of school budgets and constraints. Rather than imposing one-size-fits-all solutions, they offer funding advice, assist with grant applications, and phase projects to match available finances. Critically, they prioritise meaningful child involvement in both design and construction phases, ensuring young people develop genuine ownership of their spaces.
Their process is methodical: beginning with a free site visit, progressing through funding exploration, project confirmation, and ongoing aftercare. Products are handcrafted using local materials rather than mass-produced, ensuring each installation reflects the specific needs and character of its school. They manufacture everything from willow weaving structures and trim trails to custom shelters, all built to withstand heavy use whilst maintaining rigorous safety standards.
