GCSE Workshops & Trips
Key Stage 4 learning experiences
Here we are, the big moment....those all-important GCSE's are on the horizon. But how do you revise and consolidate all that information in a way that will keep pupils engaged and working at their best?
Booking a GCSE school trip or workshop is a great way to consolidate and build upon the subjects and topics you have covered in class, as your pupils prepare for their exams. With a wealth of fantastic in school workshops and out of school venues, a GCSE school trip out of the classroom is a great way to support your teaching.
Research shows that the practical application of knowledge is a really effective method for learning and a school trip gives the ability to apply knowledge to a real-life scenario. A GCSE school trip is also a great way to encourage informal discussions among pupils, bringing the subject to life and making the learning process fun and exciting. This is hugely advantageous for a GCSE group as a trip can help to breathe new life into a subject and ensure that your class is enthused and engaged in you topics you need them to master before their exams in May.
