Offsite education support and guidance
COVID 19 & SCHOOL TRIPS
The government has removed restrictions on offsite educational visits. It is important however that you seek financial assurance when booking with providers and tour operators.
If you are travelling overseas you need to refer to the countries FCO advice re entry requirements, check with your insurers on the cover in place and have a clear contingency plan.
