Gardening as an Activity in Schools: questions submitted by the Royal Horticultural Society (RHS), November 2009.

Five questions about gardening in schools were submitted by the RHS. The questions sought information from teachers about whether or not they and their school were involved in gardening with pupils and, if their school was, which members of the school community had been the key influences in engaging their school in this. The teachers in schools that did not have gardening activities with pupils were asked what prevented their school from doing this. Teachers were also questioned about what they perceived to be the main benefits of school gardening and whether or not they felt that every child has the right to garden at school.
