Transfers and Excursions

 

 

 

Transfers to and from London Heathrow airport (2 ½ hours from the college) are provided free of charge for flights scheduled to land or take off between 10am and 5pm every Sunday within the course dates.

 

A member of staff is assigned to meet students as they enter the public area, between these times.

 

There are normally two collections and departures from the airport on each travel day, with times varying according to the students' flight times.

 

Students wishing to use this free service should note that there may be a wait due to flight delays and the collection of

 

other students, so some patience may be required.

 

Private collections can be arranged for an additional charge.

 

The college can arrange transfers to and from any other airport within the UK, at any time, for an additional charge  For all transfers at least three days written notice is required.

 

Excursions

 

Two excursions each week - one full day and one half day - are included in the price for all courses. These are prepared and supervised by our staff, with under 16's always accompanied.

 

 

 

Other excursions may also be offered.

 

Students normally receive a briefing from teachers during the week, with further information available in the library. Our central location allows for a greater choice of interesting locations for excursions.

 

PLEASE NOTE: There will also be a set fee of 25GBP per person per week to cover admission costs whilst on excursions.
