Subject related school trip destinations and educational tours
Art & Art History
Whether looking worldwide or across Europe, some wonderful exhibitions can be found. Visits can be particularly thought-provoking for school trips and help develop students' understanding of the representation of ideas, beliefs and values as well as the different conventions used in world art.
Business & Economics
Businesses are influenced in their operations by their environment and factors such as geography, culture and demographics. On a business studies tour students can go beyond the ‘how' of business operations and learn the ‘why'.
Citizenship & Learning Skills
All school tours involve students working together and with their teachers to ensure the trip runs smoothly, while a sense of community is developed within the group. Visit any EU country to explore the UK's relations in Europe, or travel further afield to witness how other continents operate.
Classical Studies & Archaeology
One of the great benefits of leading a classical tour is bringing the curriculum to life! Walking down ancient roads, standing in a Roman bath or Greek temple is surely the peak of educational travel and your students will return with strong images to better relate to their studies.
Geography Educational Tours
All school tours automatically cover an element of geographical study, through map reading, seeing the impact of tourism, studying local production, climate, traffic and town development, local farming techniques, mountain/coastal climate, volcanology and tectonic activity and much more.
History & Battlefields
There is great benefit in school tours visiting a historical site for improved understanding of a curricular topic. Many museums offer course material that can be used in class prior to departure. Additionally research projects can be followed up on tour, such as tracing the story of a local soldier.
Modern Foreign Languages
School travel provides excellent practice for language students, enabling them to communicate with native speakers. Using the language in real situations will boost students' skills and confidence enormously, whilst listening to the locals helps to improve students' pronunciation and intonation.
Religious Education
Visiting another country is a great way for students' to experience other cultures, and see how the role of the family and community can vary according to different religious beliefs. Students will compare the similarities and differences across societies, on both a national and global level.
Science Educational Tours
There are many science-related visits that will stimulate and excite a student's curiosity about phenomena and events in the world around them. School travel will encourage creative thought and critical analysis while knowledge will be increased through questioning and discussion.
Sports & Active
Leading an active or water sports school tour is a very rewarding experience as you encourage individuals of mixed abilities and interests to participate together and share the experience of personal achievement as well as fun!
