| SEA LIFE Birmingham | Great venue, so much for children to see and do. Didn't provide anywhere for children to put coats and bags on arrival so they had to carry these all round the centre. | 12 January 2023 | |

| Science Museum | Some logistic issues with leaiving bags and lunch. Additionally the year 7s were "not allowed" to go round in groups of three. There were told to stay with the teacher. This made the visit less enjoyable. | 11 January 2023 | |

| Warner Bros. Studio Tour London - The Making of Harry Potter | The venue is excellent as both a reward and an educational visit, with plenty of things to see for students of most age ranges. There is a significant amount of walking involved so anyone who is attending with a mobility limitation or fatigue issue may need to borrow a wheelchair or take their own. Wheelchairs are available to borrow and most of the site is accessible, although some areas are restricted as they are original set pieces. The students really enjoyed the trip and the staff were very helpful. There is a very large queue for the gift shop and the prices of both souvenirs and food were very high so I recommend encouraging staff and students to take packed lunch and drinks with them. | 10 January 2023 | |

| SkiBound | There were a couple of issues with the venue including: Food timings - particularly for those with dietary needs, their food was regularly served a considerable amount of time after the other students (often around 20 minutes) No towels and not made aware of this before leaving Staff were cleaning on the final day at 6am with loud music playing even though we weren't due to wake until 7am - antisocial. On the other hand there were positives to be taken regarding the company: Transfers between the airport and the resort were organised well. Ski hire was in the hotel and any issues were quickly dealt with. Ski reps Alex and Els were both very friendly and helpful. Location for the slopes was excellent. | 09 January 2023 | |

| Science Museum | The Wonderlab had fantastic opportunities to explore a range of different Scientific fields and was very practical! The children integrated with the public well. The Wondershow was invaluable in its knowledge and really excited the children with live experiments - feeding their inquisitiveness. | 06 January 2023 | |

| Halsbury Travel Ltd | Generally Halsbury are an excellent provider. However, we are not happy with the double decker coach not having the correct satnav to plan routes properly, avoiding low bridges. We are in discussion with Halsbury about this | 06 January 2023 | |
