Hand washing fun with hot water and copious amounts of anti-bac soap! We provide a full Risk Assessment for your visit, and in some cases limited funding may be available from Natural England.
On this page you can view/download all the documents you need for your visit, including our Teachers Information Pack and full Risk Assessment, as well as information about possible funding available from Natural England.
Costs and Funding
As a Science teacher herself, Kate Bankes has organised and run many field trips during her time in school, so she is only too aware of the difficulties in financing trips and making them both feasible and justifiable to run, giving all children the opportunity to participate. In the era of vast coach fees, Kate will always endeavour to try and keep costs as low as is possible to enable visits to happen.
Copsegrove therefore adopt a slightly flexible costing policy, whereby cost per child will vary from £6 to £9 per day depending upon class size, programme chosen, materials required for the day, and length of visit. We hope this helps enable all schools to come and visit!
Natural England
We also have a limited amount of funding available from Natural England which can help to subsidise the costs for a school and substantially reduce the cost per child. Please ask for availability. We try and share the funding out evenly between the schools that come, but always try and secure a day’s funding for a school coming for the first time.
