Trips, Visits & Excursions
We truly value the wider curriculum and all that this brings to a young person's development.
We aspire to provide as many exciting experiences during their school years as possible, to give our students new challenges, things to look forward to and to help build their friendships and memories.
We aim to offer a variety of experiences for our young people during the time they are with us, both day trips and residentials. The information provided here is what we aim to offer each year but this is subject to change due to demand and any new opportunities that arise.

The aim of this trip is to bring the classroom teaching of these technology subjects alive through a DT seminar and interactive workshop based in Disneyland Paris in which students will gain first-hand experience of their subjects in real-life environments. It will also give them the fun experience of the world renowned Disneyland and the chance to visit Paris and its iconic sights.
