The Temple and Mountain Analogy of the Forest School Leader Journey. Not everyone will summit to the temple and be fully imparted with the forest school connection and “Magic”. Some will leave the mountain half way through. Some will leave after the reach the first hut. Some will leave after only learning 30 percent of the “Magic”. But the spirit of the journey will continue with you for the rest of your life. Thats forest school.

Here are a list of the structural flow of the recruitment to self-employment process. This is malleable and maybe subjected to changes and flow based on the personality and ability of the Coach him/herself.
