School & College Expeditions

An expedition in a remote, challenging environment can have a positive impact on the development of a young person. They learn about their ability to work as part of a team, assessing & managing risk, and working towards a common goal. These are skills which transfer back to the 'real world', academic life and the workplace, making them better equipped for life.

We work with all groups to tailor educational expedition programmes so that curricular & extra-curricular aims and objectives are achieved. These can include elements of the National Curriculum, Key Skills or elements of the Duke of Edinburgh's Award.

New for 2006
