| WST Travel Ltd | Overall WST were very helpful but there were a few issues during the trip. WST did not pass on dietary requirements to hostel. Our travel rep was unable to meet us at the airport on the outbound journey and didn't contact us about this, and the coach driver in Geneva was provided the wrong information by WST. | 22 November 2023 | |

| Winter Wonderland | We attended Winter Wonderland as part of a charity event. It was therefore only at about 15% capacity. We were treated very well by the staff, who could not have been more accommodating. There would be opportunities for the students to examine how different rides operate. We utilised the day to improve their communication, teamwork and resilience skills. The circus and ice skating offer opportunities to enhance the students' cultural capital. The toilets were clean and regularly monitored. We did not have any physically disabled students with us and so I cannot speak from experience, but I believe from what I saw that many of the rides would have been inaccessible to a wheelchair user. On a standard peak day it would have been much busier, the queue times would have been significantly longer and it would have been noisier, which some of my studnets would have struggled to cope with. | 22 November 2023 | |

| Herd Farm | A superb venue and facilitators for our residential. All our needs were met, the accommodation was clean and the food was excellent. All of the instructors were fantastic with our Y6 children - some of whom had additional needs. Would highly recommend for residentials. | 22 November 2023 | |
