Revolutionary?
We’re happy to suggest ideas and advise on itineraries and even help your students design their own itineraries!

"Typical itineraries are city-based and include travel and accommodation at hostels or hotels. They include a mix of curriculum-based activities and extra-curricular highlights and we can build them around pre-organised events or offer them as stand-alone. Typically they take place in the UK but we also offer city destinations in the Eurozone and the USA.

Teachers with a wide range of experience in organising trips use us as we can work to a specific brief or use our experience to provide an itinerary from scratch."

The benefits of Theatre Breaks - Education's complete support throughout a hassle-free process are:

1. Teachers get help in designing an itinerary that underlines the curriculum safely and imaginatively, that will excite students and reassure parents making it easier to enthuse both.
2. To make the itinerary realistic avoiding last minute changes and destination-based disasters.
3. To book all aspects of the itinerary ensuring 100% accuracy, enabling the teacher to get on with teaching and avoid becoming
an amateur travel agent.
4. To help the teacher communicate with students and parents, to speed up the delivery of information and collection of paperwork and payment making life easier.
5. To ensure that whilst on their trips teachers and students have the support they need.
6. To help with teaching materials before, during and after the trip.
7. To provide bonding so that even if Theatre Breaks - Education are not around, when you depart, your booking will be.

5. Product Knowledge and Training - Keep product knowledge and staff training up-to-date by seeking out and auditing attractions, venues and activities that will benefit the students the trips are created for.

7. Prices and Payments - Understand the budgets that schools have to work to and continue to maintain competitive package prices that fit in with those budgets whilst keeping the payment process as simple and as flexible as possible.

8. Awareness and Industry Cooperation - Support and encourage suppliers to be sympathetic to the educational travel market in order to make the whole industry sector work towards the same goals.
