A smaller budget shouldn’t get in the way of a child’s learning and development. And there are plenty of options for schools who want to inspire students without breaking the bank! If you’re planning a trip that caters for a range of backgrounds, here are some ideas to get you started…
English Heritage - Did you know English Heritage offers free self-led visits at over 400 sites across the UK? These cover a range of historical periods, from Roman forts to Victorian halls and everything in between. Plus there’s a wide range of free resources available to ensure your trip always makes a lasting impact.
Liverpool World Museum - From the depths of the seas to ancient civilisations, there are thousands of exhibits and hands-on activities to explore at Liverpool’s World Museum. Self-led visits are free and there are also lots of workshops available to engage and excite students in the world around them. What’s not to love?
Ingleborough Cave and Nature Trail - Students have the opportunity to venture 500 meters underground and uncover topics from science to humanities by visiting this spectacular natural wonder. Prices start at £5 per pupil and tours can be catered to all ages, from primary through to sixth form. There’s also lots more to discover in the surrounding Yorkshire Dales, including fault systems, burial chambers and more!
