Which Curriculum Subjects do we cater for?
Cultural
Compared to international trips, UK-based trips are generally more affordable and easier to organize. This can allow more students to participate, making the experience more inclusive. Reduced travel time also means more time can be spent on educational activities rather than transit. This trip includes visits to factories and museums to see design and manufacturing processes in action, but it can be adapted to focus on your main subject area.
