Programs.

Project Study.

With time school and institute have realized the importance of subjective field trips [History, culture, agriculture, technology, religion]. A project study tour brings education outside the confines of a classroom and gives definition to what students have been learning in the classroom. Along with team building activities concentrated in team bonding these programs have children visit local schools to experience the difference in culture, share their knowledge, play games and help with activities such as painting, cleaning, crafts in our local schools. This is a big part of character building which we believe is very important in growing children.

Safety

Safety and safeguarding is our top priority
–

The safety and well being of your group is always our top priority and we never compromise on it. Our tried and tested safety management systems are backed up by rigorous internal and external auditing which is why teachers trust us to look after their students.

Activity Risk Assessments

For all adventure activities run by CAN staff, we provide schools with the relevant risk assessments, operating procedures and safeguarding policies. CAN adventure staffs require First Aid certification. Lead instructors hold an appropriate National Governing Body qualification.

For all other programmes, we provide generic risk assessments, supplemented with specific information about a destination, such as disabled access. CAN take all reasonable steps to obtain evidence from excursions providers that Health and Safety has been evaluated and provides this information to party leaders so they can make informed decisions for their group. We assist to party leaders to take Inspection Visits and undertake their own risk assessments.

Inspection Visits

We understand that you may want to scope out your school trip for yourself before taking your students, so we welcome teachers in order for any pre-planning and risk assessments to be completed.
