Details of any residential visits being run are usually announced at least 6 months in advance of the event and would be announced in multiple ways to ensure that students do not miss out on any opportunities available such as student announcements, the weekly newsletter and also dedicated emails.

Parents would be asked to cover any additional costs of an event or visit which the school may incur. Although the school would attempt to keep costs to a minimum; taking into consideration best value for money, established reputations and wherever possible using Transport for London’s free school travel for pre-arranged small group bookings.

Where payments are being made for a residential trip, parents are given the opportunity to pay via instalments to spread out any costs. Parents will be informed of the costs of a trip and the payment options available when deciding if you wish your child to participate.
