Educational visits form an important part of the education at Breckon Hill. We believe that children learn best when engaged in first hand, memorable expericences and activities.

The school will, as far as we possibly can, provide educational visits free to all children.

However, it may be that some visits are unable to take place without contributions from parents. All contributions are voluntary and parents will be informed by letter about the cost of the visit.

All educational visits comply with relevant guidelines and legislation.
