It is interesting that very few local authorities have produced what might be called a school trip guide for their area.
Therefore in what follows we have constructed a list of English counties and added a link where we have been able to find one to a site that lists a number of locations within that county which contain details of places to visit that will be of interest to schools.
However we are not suggesting that each link is the only, or indeed the best, link to a set of locations in the county.
Therefore if you would like to suggest another site which could be of interest please do send it, with the name of the county it relates to, to Sam@schools.co.uk
and we will try to add it.
You might particularly like to note the “Free Self-Led School Visits” page from the National Trust which has almost 400 sites listed across England.
Where we have no link it is because we simply haven’t found anything at all. If you can fill in the gaps, again please do write to Sam.
We are very grateful to Benchmark Leasing for their sponsorship of this website.
Benchmark Leasing have been instrumental in making it possible for schools to organise more learning outside activities by removing the need for schools to have to raise the entire cost of a minibus in one go.
What's more, the company has been at the forefront of helping schools share a leased minibus, meaning that many schools that could not previously justify the cost of a minibus can now have one at their disposal for just part of each week allowing a neighbouring school to take it over during the times when it is not required.
You can read more about how schools are finding increasingly innovative ways of getting to the sites chosen for their outside education on the page "How to get there" on this site.
