Field trips
Planned around one stated objective, on a site we have walked ourselves, with the timings, the toilets and the wet weather already handled.
The trip most likely to be planned casually is the one most likely to go wrong. It gets the full treatment here.
A one day picnic feels low risk, which is exactly why it is planned in a hurry: an unvetted venue, a coach booked on price, a headcount done by eye, and two hundred excited children. The incidents that schools remember disproportionately happen on day trips.
We run these with the same written protocol as a residential expedition. Venue seen in advance, coach and driver documents checked, food arrangements confirmed against the dietary list, named adult per group, and counts at every single transition.
Four things this programme is designed to leave behind. If it cannot deliver them, it is the wrong programme and we say so.



A shape, not a schedule. Yours is built around your dates, your year group and what the trip has to achieve.
Length, region and season are set against your academic calendar and your budget. No prices are published because a school group is costed against its own headcount, dates and inclusions, never against a brochure rate.
Every programme on this site runs to the same written protocol. It is published in full, because a teacher who is personally accountable should not have to take it on trust.
Two minutes to send, and a coordinator calls the school back. No prices are quoted until we know the headcount, the dates and what the trip has to achieve.
