Learning Outside the Classroom
When you take your pupils on a PGL Adventure Study course
you want to be sure it will benefi t their performance back at
school. Our courses are designed to meet the requirements of
the National Curriculum and are tailor made in consultation
with teachers so that you focus on the areas you need to cover
during your stay. The benefi ts of a PGL Adventure Study course
stretch far beyond the purely academic to include improved
self-confi dence, self-esteem and motivation - factors which will
be of importance to your pupils for the rest of their school lives
and beyond.
“Educational visits are among the most memorable experiences in a child’s school life. I want to see schools
taking advantage of the opportunities that learning outside the classroom provides to bring subjects to life.” Unbeatable Value
Ed Balls, Secretary of State for Children, Schools and Families, February 2009
