School tripsIf you're a schoolteacher keen for your pupils to get out of the classroom every once in a while, but want to ensure they are still learning, then you are sure to want to take them on an informative and enlightening school trip.

By going on school trips, you can engage children with things they've been taught at school and by actually visiting some of the places they have read about they could get a clearer insight into a particular topic or subject.

We here at STS School Travel Service provide trips for a variety of educational institutions, from primary and secondary schools to further education colleges, so you can be sure pupils can get out into the real world, where they can both learn and have fun while doing so.

I want to take my pupils on a school trip to Europe - where can we go?

A wide variety of school trip destinations are offered by us at STS School Travel Service so no matter where it is you want to take your students there is sure to be a location that suits you.

The majority of our school trips are focused in Europe, so you may well find yourself taking pupils to the continent as part of their learning experience.

Perhaps one of most popular trip destinations is France, with Normandy, Paris and the French Alps among the places you can go to.

Alternatively you can take in the likes of Madrid, Seville and Barcelona while on a school trip to Spain.

Belgium, Turkey, Estonia, Italy and Austria are just a few of the other European school trip destinations we offer services to.

However, school trips do not have to focus on just one country, with the STS Multi-Centre tour, you can take in Germany, the Czech Republic and Poland in a single travel experience. The tour stops off at Berlin, Krakow and Prague.

What if I want to take my students further afield?

At STS School Travel Service we are not just limited to school trips to Europe, you also have the option of going to the US, Canada, Peru and Mexico; while your pupils could find Africa - trips to Kenya and Egypt are just two of the countries we serve in this continent - to be an enriching and educationally-rewarding experience.

Why not head down under as a part of your school trip? We have tours which go to Australia and New Zealand, not to mention several Asian countries.

Of course, a school trip does not necessarily have to involve going abroad. Cornwall, York and Edinburgh are some of the UK destinations STS School Travel Service offers trips to, so no matter where you want to take your children, booking a trip with us could help your students to learn outside of the classroom.

A school trip could help them get to grips with a range of subjects so why not look at the destinations we offer today?
