The teachers lounge was closed when we arrived. there are no coffee /tea making facilities, or comfy chairs, in it and I was wary of leaving my bags in there when I needed to go to the loo or collect a hot drink as the door was left open all the time. I was the designated staff member who was to be on duty in case of emergencies. (October 2019 - Secondary - Post No: 16517 )

The Alton Towers trip is always popular and enjoyed by all. The rides are excellent and staff appear friendly and helpful.
There is a hygiene suite for wheelchair users who require full support but only one so you do need to plan the day carefully to account for that. (August 2019 - Primary & Secondary - Post No: 15447 )

The booking in process, getting wrist bands for disabled access to the rides and the whole entrance experience was really smooth and well done by staff.

The hygiene suites were excellent, clean, warm, well equipped etc. (November 2018 - Secondary - Post No: 7938 )
