For educators

Relevant to British and IB classrooms.

Our activities can support topics commonly taught across British and International Baccalaureate programmes. We work with teachers to agree objectives before a visit; precise syllabus and assessment alignment is confirmed on a programme-by-programme basis.

British curriculum & GCSE / IGCSE

Potential links include ecosystems, coastal environments, human-environment interactions, sustainability, geographical enquiry and field observations.

For teachers: share the examination board, year group and topic so we can propose relevant learning activities.

International Baccalaureate

Potential connections include inquiry-based learning, environmental systems, sustainability, human impact and reflective learning across appropriate IB age groups.

For teachers: share whether the group follows PYP, MYP or DP and the inquiry or unit objectives.

A practical trip-planning process

Easy for teachers to organise.

01 / Tell us your class

Year group, curriculum, group size and topics being studied.

02 / Shape the visit

Agree activities, timings, supervision, accessibility, equipment and suitable learning outcomes.

03 / Learn outdoors

Enjoy a guided group visit with opportunities to observe, explore and reflect.

AquaSports eco-camp facilities

For organisers and parents

Confidence in the details.

School visits need clear practical arrangements. Before a booking is confirmed, we can discuss programme suitability, supervision requirements, safety procedures, access and facilities, clothing and equipment, and weather contingencies.

Detailed risk-assessment documents and specific staff qualifications should be reviewed and confirmed with the AquaSports team rather than assumed from this overview.
