| NST Travel Group | Naples Evaluation 12-15th March 2024 This was a highly successful trip. Timings for the trip were excellent and the days were highly successful and linked to the curriculum well. Day 1: Although a long day, the farm visit was hugely successful and looked at farm diversification. They made pizza by hand and we ate a good lunch. The Gelato making experience was delicious. Day 2: Isle of Capri & Sorrento: The students were a highly capable group who walked around the isle of capri led by our two NST guides. The weather was delightful and the crossing gentle and calm, the boat was busy on this day both going and returning from capri. Superb day; We spent some time after the day on Capri to visit the town of Sorrento. This was a safe and delightful moment. Day 3: Vesuvius and Pompeii: a lovely day, great weather and good views from the top. Pompeii was a safe environment but needed more time to explore. We had two and a half hours here. Vesuvius was a steady climb of 140m In height. The group walked for 40 ish minutes to reach the top crater. NST guides led the group at a good pace. Day 4: Naples a difficult city to tour with a large group. Road crossing was a difficult task but fully supported by all staff in the team. Naple’s Archaeological Museum was a safe and outstanding environment with strong links to History and Ancient History. It is a modern building with storage for bags. Students were not allowed to take bags in with them. Hotel Stabia review – A good hotel with organised and helpful staff. Food was of high quality at each meal time. There was good recognition regarding allergies. We were able to meet with students in a lounge area close to reception and this was socially really good. Some rooms had balconies and students were told/advised not to access them. Swimming pool present (but tiny) not open or full during winter period. | 21 March 2024 | |

| Shuttleworth College | This was a careers visit for post 16 options, but could possibly be of use for visits for younger students and alternative provision | 20 March 2024 | |
| Kent Life | The venue is largely historical and makes for a great trip around historical topics. However, with a farm on site, it could also lend itself to Science or Geography. | 20 March 2024 | |

| The British Schools Museum | We had a great and interactive learning experience at the museum. It was a compact site which managed to cram a lot in. Pupils were all provided with costumes which was amazing as it meant all pupils were equal and we did not have to travel to the venue in full Victorian regalia. The Victorian lesson was perfect as it captured the strict Victorian spirit without being overly terrifying. The pupils selected for 'caning' were delighted with the experience and the museum really took our needs into consideration by having us nominate pupils for this in advance and having good safeguarding systems and systems to support SEND learners who may not understand or enjoy the role-playing. The tour of the Victorian headmaster's house was also excellent with many opportunities for pupils to ask questions to learn more about Vicotrian life and to really feel immersed in history. | 20 March 2024 | |
