Field trips and visits to places of educational interest, such as museums, galleries, religious buildings, theatres and concert halls, are an integral part of our curriculum. We welcome the involvement of parents/carers in helping to supervise these outings.
During the Autumn term, Year 6 children have the opportunity to spend a week on a residential school journey. They will take part in a variety of challenging and enjoyable activities.
Charging Policy
The Education Reform Act (1988) states that:
a) there is no legal obligation for parents to contribute to activities that take place during school hours
b) parents can be asked to make voluntary contributions to these activities
c) pupils will be treated similarly, whether or not their parents have made a contribution.
The school believes strongly in the value of educational trips during school time but does not have sufficient funds to subsidise every outing. Therefore we have to seek voluntary contributions. There may have to be cancellations if sufficient funds are not raised.
If your child deliberately breaks or damages school property we would ask you for the cost of replacing or repairing the item.
