Why We Do What We Do

background image
Essential Skills

By using the Skills Builder Essential Skills Framework we will tailor the activities to focus on selected Essential Skills for each course. Prior to school trips, we liaise with teachers to identify the learning objectives and to discuss reviews following each activity to ensure we maximise growth amongst students.

background image
Character

We believe that developing character is important to a child’s development and helps with academic success as well as stimulating a global perspective. Our skilled instructors will guide students through the activities, helping them to take ownership of each task. We let students explore their own boundaries while offering support and guidance.

background image
Wellbeing

It has been proven that getting into the Great Outdoors can help to heal, soothe and restore physical and mental wellbeing. We use each of our unique locations (woods, coast and mountains) to offer new physical challenges, while highlighting the benefits of their stunning natural surroundings.

Module Code: alc-cta-map-block

Locations

With three unique locations, our Active Learning Centres offer a diverse range of natural environments, accommodation options and stimulating activities.

Spanning from the coast, through the woods and up to the mountains, we have centres across the UK. Each centre shares the same belief in using outdoor adventures to create educational school trips that promote personal growth and wellbeing.

  • Instructors are Incredible!

    Kids have had a great time and developed many skills and independence. The meals and kitchen staff have been excellent – they looked after us well.

    Broughton Fields Primary School

  • School trip to The Towers

    As a ‘new’ centre, Phil has created a lovely place to stay with excellent workers; I would consider it an excellent example for other centres to look at and could be used to show how a centre should be run and managed. Thank you for making us feel so welcome and cared for.

    Duncombe School

  • Great Trip!

    Professional and friendly, ideally suited to our art class painting and drawing programme.

    North Bridge House

  • Overall, the Children thoroughly enjoyed their stay.

    The activities were really enjoyable and the days were well organised.

    Churchfields Primary
