The Forest Education Initiative (FEI) specifically addresses educational needs of children, young people and also teachers. The initiative aims to increase the understanding and appreciation of the environmental, social, and economic potential of trees, woodlands and forests and of the link between the tree and everyday wood products.

The FEI provides free learning resources. Its practical work is achieved through local groups, who initiate and deliver various local projects such as developing woodland settings in school grounds, hosting INSET events for teachers or providing teaching packs about local trees, woods, forestry and forest industries.
