There are discovery trails around the hands-on displays that cover topics such as brains, bubbles, DNA and animation, plus exciting presenter-led shows in the dedicated science studio with plenty of audience participation.

The programme of school workshops is constantly evolving, and new additions include The Water Cycle with water-based experiments for KS2; and Explore Your Universe: Atoms to Astrophysics for KS3, which uses a variety of intriguing equipment not found in the classroom.

School Trips In The UK

School trips in the UK are proof that you really don’t have to go far to engage and inspire your pupils outside of the classroom. We offer a range of educational trips in the UK to support your curriculum, whether it's art, geography, science, performing arts, or something else. 

We're an experienced school travel company, built and ran by former teachers. We're here to help you get your trip off the ground, with free teacher places, risk assessments, cancellation guarantees, and end-to-end planning and support from the moment you enquire.

Why should you consider the UK for your next school trip?

Unrivalled history and culture.

The UK has such a fascinating history and rich culture – those of us who live here often forget how lucky we are in this regard!

Head on an educational school trip to Stratford-Upon-Avon to learn about the Tudors and Elizabethan England, or York to learn more about the history of crime and punishment. Or visit to one of the big cities, such as London, Liverpool and Manchester to find out what life was like on the home front during WW2.

Or, your group could head to Glasgow for some of the UK’s premier art museums. In Cornwall, you could experience artists’ studios and in Bristol enjoy a street art walking tour. And in Manchester, your pupils can find out how industrial cityscapes have influenced local artists.

Unforgettable experiences

Have you been asked to arrange a school trip that will offer your group opportunities to enjoy activities or experiences that wouldn’t be provided in a normal week?

We have residential trips that are perfect for both secondary and primary school groups.

You can choose from a great variety of destinations, including Yorkshire, the Peak District, Cornwall, the Lake District and the West Midlands. And you can choose from an incredible variety of activities and experiences, from snowsports, water sports and adventure sports to shelter building, visiting a theme park or exploring a medieval castle.

Incredible landscapes

Here in the UK, we’re incredibly lucky to have some spectacular scenery right on our doorstep.

You could explore coastal landscapes and sustainability on a geography-focused visit to Cornwall. Or perhaps try the vast moorland and deep dales of the North York Moors. Or how about heading to the Yorkshire Dales to see the effects of hydrology on the landscape?

There are plenty of fantastic destinations that will benefit pupils by getting outside, having fun, and boosting learning all at the same time.

It's a wonderful example of a semi-royal castle of the late middle ages and was famously the scene of the 6-month long Siege of Kenilworth in 1266. The castle was also the scene of the removal of Edward II from the English throne. Queen Elizabeth I was a guest here of the Earl of Leicester in 1575, where he attempted to impress her enough that she would marry him. Although it was an exceptionally lavish visit, with no expense spared, Queen Elizabeth remained unconvinced.

School Travel

Getting Started

• Familiarise yourself with your school’s procedure for organising days away, ensuring that you have all of the necessary approvals and forms on hand. To avoid anything from slipping through the cracks, it’s worth going over the administrative process with another colleague.
• Write down the objectives of the visit to convince parents or guardians of its educational (or other) value for their children. Make sure that you ask for written consent from all parents.
• Develop an itinerary and a packing checklist. While this can be time consuming, it’s not if you let us do this for you! You’ll share this schedule of events with parents, students and colleagues.
• Make a list of every pupil attending the trip, and create folders that contain their parents’ or guardians’ written consent, their medical and dietary requirements and other important information, such as their behavioural tendencies.
• It’s always a good idea to visit the location beforehand. At the School Travel Company we can organise an inspection visit prior to the trip, allowing you to conduct risk assessments, try out your chosen accommodation and check out local transport options before your class steps foot off the bus.

Preparing Your Pupils

• Showing pupils a film about the destination
• Having students who went on past trips talk about what they most enjoyed
• Going over the itinerary in class, and – if the outing is educational – highlighting opportunities for downtime
•  If applicable, giving them a checklist of items (and/or questions about them) to look out for during their trip, such as historical monuments or flora and fauna. The first person to see everything on the list wins a prize!

Of course, these tips for planning your outing are only a drop in the ocean compared to our experienced team’s wealth of insider knowledge. Whether you’re looking for school trip ideas or already have a specific excursion in mind, we at The School Travel Company are here to lift the logistical weight off of your shoulders.
