| Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse | Brilliant day | 06 March 2020 | |
| Gressenhall Farm and Workhouse | We had a fantastic day here. It was all very well organised with the children led around to each of their activities. The activities were well pitched so the children remained engaged throughout. We took both KS1 and KS2 so the activities were also differentiated accordingly. | 06 March 2020 | |

| SkiBound | The rep assisting the trip was one step behind the tour at all times. Three of the six ski instructors weren't even level one qualified, my staff and I were doing most of the coaching for our students learning to ski. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Travelbound | Travelbound were excellent and I will be using them again. They responded to all requests and queries quickly and were able to make the changes to the tour as I requested. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Royal Liverpool Philharmonic | What another marvellous concert. It's always well organised, from the arrival of schools to getting back on the coaches at the end. There were visuals to keep our KS2 pupils interested and world class instrumentalists. | 05 March 2020 | |
| European Study Tours | Communication was excellent, however the hotel we stayed at had a wedding going on which meant we couldn't use the games room on the night we got there. If we had known this is advance we would have stayed at the Disney Village later and planned in more events. The wedding also finished very late and there was some loud (and what seemed to be drunken) behaviour from some of the guests at around 2am which woke up myself, some of the students and even the bus driver. They really need to carefully consider what events they have on at the accomodation before booking student groups in. The lack of a "games room" made it more difficult for the students to blow off some steam before bed, which made getting them settled and to sleep a little harder. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Blackpool Pleasure Beach Ltd | An excellent experience, apart from the difficulty some of our students had trying to obtain their fast passes - they needed to download an app onto their phones but some did not have phones or mobile data. | 05 March 2020 | |

| Beeston Castle & Woodland Park | The staff were so professional and friendly and made the trip so worthwhile. the only problem was that there was no designated indoor eating area, perhaps it is something for Beeston to consider? But the trip was a success and the children learned a lot. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Holocaust Educational Trust | Excellent focus, planning, organisation, structure, communication and materials for delivery. Only concern is the pro-Zionist message that is linked to studies of the Holocaust, which I feel is a little politicised and unnecessary. But overall a very good provider of educational trips. | 05 March 2020 | |

| Leeson House Field Studies Centre | Annual trip went to plan as usual, 6th time visiting Leeson | 05 March 2020 | |
| The Chill Factore | Superb - first time I have used it. It was much better than Xscape - arrival / checking in and organisation in particular was brilliant. Beginner's slop great and having a 1h50m lesson allowed the students to make much more progress than 1h. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Ski and Sport Ltd | We have been using them for several years, they provide a very good and personalised service. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Interski | Very helpful and well organised group. All instructors had a fantastic rapport with pupils. | 05 March 2020 | |

| Thinktank Birmingham science museum | Excellent workshop - unfortunately some exhibits were broken or looking very tired. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Calvert Trust | Great for small groups of children with SEND for team building and self esteem. | 05 March 2020 | |
| The Golden Hinde Educational Trust | Excellent tour guide who engaged the children. Great to see our learning about Explorers in context. | 05 March 2020 | |
| Wellington College | Very well received and looked after. There were health and safety notices everywhere including the telephone number of the school nurse in case of issues. Organisation was excellent. The only issue was leaving the venue at the end - took ages to get out of Wellington College in general. | 05 March 2020 | |
| YHA Oxford Street | A great facility. Central and welcoming. | 05 March 2020 | |
