Excursions

Throughout each course, students benefit from a half day trip every Wednesday afternoon, and a full day trip every weekend (typically Saturday). The location is chosen based on its journey time from Concord, its interest to students and its safety.

Many optional excursion will be arranged during the course including trips to premier football league pre-season friendlies, premier football club stadium tours or theatre trips.

All students will:

  • Be supervised on the coach journey to the venue
  • Have contact details of the trip leader and accompanying staff
  • Have a map of the place being visited
  • Be shown where the meeting point is where a member of staff will be located throughout the duration of the trip

Supervision During Excursions and Trips

Our Junior students, aged 10 – 12, are supervised for all excursions by a teacher with a group ratio of 1 teacher:6 students.

Our Senior students, aged 13 – 17, are unsupervised for all excursions (unless notified otherwise on relevant supervision form or via parental portal) but must check in at a meeting point at designated times throughout the trip and must remain in a minimum student group size of 4.

The Course Director will make the final decision regarding supervision. 


Parents will be required to complete their consents for both supervision and medical care via the parental portal – details of access to this will be issued during the enrolment process.
