We cover many areas of the curriculum in all Key Stages, including aspects of Geography, Science, Technology, Citizenship and History. We plan each visit after consultation in a pre-visit meeting with the teacher and depending on the purpose of the visit, issues such as organic farming, farm technology, business diversification, land use, animal husbandry and welfare, and food production, can be incorporated into the visit.
Each visit is planned to cater specifically for the needs of the students involved so that they can get as much out of the visit as possible, as well as enjoying a day in the countryside!
