Story
As a school, we believe that a brilliant residential should be seen as a fundamental part of a well-rounded education. We know that its support in helping schools create life changing experiences that have a measurable impact back in school influences the futures of these young people every year.
We are absolutely committed to helping you get the most out of the learning outside the classroom experience.
We know that successful outdoor residential experiences provide challenge, build confidence, promote independence, forge life-long friendships and also increase student engagement and attainment back at school. It also provides an opportunity for these children to get out of the city, see that there is more to the world than the estate where they all live. (I'm always shocked how surprised they are to see what the countryside looks like!)
Due to the high level of deprivation that these families face, we fund as much of the trip as possible. In previous years, school budgets have allowed for us to subsidise places and we have also had access to a number of grants to further reduce the costs. However, funding cuts are making this more and more difficult.
