School Bookings

Making a booking for your class

We regret that we are unable to take telephone bookings. However, do feel free to ring and check on charges, suitability of programmes etc. In all cases we will then ask you to submit a booking form online (which is cheaper) or by post.

Places are allocated as follows:

Autumn Term: by July in the previous term.
Spring Term: by November of the previous year.
Summer Term: by December of the previous year.

Allocation

Places are allocated in the order that booking forms were received, but to make best use of the days available and ensure compatibility between programmes being undertaken by different classes on the same day, we assemble most of the requests before allocating days.

Late Bookings

There are usually some free days during the Autumn and Spring terms for schools booking late. However, we often have to disappoint schools booking late for the summer term as most applications are received up to a year in advance. Please ring Anna Wyatt on 01299 250513 Ext 201, any term-time afternoon, for details.
