Frequently Asked Questions (FAQS)
Ask with our education group travel consultants to plan your next trip.
What is education group travel and why is it important?
Education travel is a form of group travel designed specifically for students, teachers, and educational institutions. It combines real-world learning with cultural experiences, allowing students to explore history, science, arts, and more outside the classroom. It enhances retention, promotes global understanding, and builds soft skills like independence and teamwork.
Who can book education group travel with Group Travel Team?
We work with schools, colleges, universities, and other educational organisations. Whether you’re a teacher organising a geography field trip or a university arranging an academic conference abroad, our education group travel specialists can tailor trips for all age groups and academic levels.
Do you offer international education travel or just UK-based trips?
Both! We offer a wide range of UK-based trips (e.g. to Oxford, London, Edinburgh) as well as international destinations across Europe, Asia, and North America. All itineraries are planned to support learning outcomes and align with curriculum goals.
Can parents join the education group travel group?
Yes, in many cases we can accommodate accompanying parents or guardians, especially for younger student groups. Our team will help you build a balanced itinerary that caters to both educational and practical needs for all travellers.
How far in advance should we book our education group travel?
Ideally, education travel should be booked 6 to 12 months in advance. This ensures better group fares, accommodation availability, and time to handle paperwork like visas, insurance, or permissions. However, we can also arrange last-minute trips depending on your destination and group size.
Do you help with educational content or worksheets during the trip?
Yes, upon request, we can provide learning materials like worksheets, reflection guides, and destination fact sheets to support the educational objectives of your trip. We also collaborate with local educational institutions and museums to create immersive learning experiences.
Can you customise an itinerary around a specific syllabus or exam board?
Absolutely. Whether your school follows the UK National Curriculum, IB, IGCSE, or a specific exam board (like AQA, Edexcel, OCR), we can align your trip itinerary to support key syllabus topics and outcomes.
Is there a minimum or maximum number of travellers for education travel?
We typically arrange education travel for groups of 10 or more. There’s no strict maximum, but we may divide very large groups into sub-groups for logistics and safety. Smaller groups are also possible, though pricing may vary depending on the destination.
How do we pay for education group travel, and is it refundable?
We offer flexible payment options including deposits, instalment plans, and school invoicing. Cancellation policies vary by airline and accommodation provider, but we always share refund policies upfront and recommend travel insurance for added protection.
