School Trips

We offer our pupils access to a rich and varied range of local, national and international visits. These play a vital part in enriching the curriculum and giving our students valuable life experiences that will linger long in their memories and ensure that they represented our school as ‘One of Ours’. This is all part of our plan that pupils love the experiences, learn from them and grow in their understanding of the world around us. All students are entitled to apply to go on the educational visits on offer to them, residential and non-residential, in the UK and to foreign countries; however, in some cases, they may be required to have met certain stipulations. If this is the case then these will have been explained to the pupils well in advance.

The following list is subject to change and is an indicator of the visits that we intend to run in this calendar year and beyond. Any prices are estimates to enable parents to plan ahead and will be subject to change as final costs are calculated.
