Along with Turin and Milan, Bologna is one of the most important industrial cities in Italy. It retains a strong manufacturing culture and a European focus, making an educational trip here a great chance for groups to learn about doing business in Europe - all within the setting of the hills and plains of Emilia Romagna.
Subject Focus:
• KS 4-5: The organisation of businesses and how they adapt to local markets.

It makes a huge difference as a busy teacher to have people on the other end of the phone who always seem to be so helpful with solving the inevitable problems that arise in the organisation of such trips.
