About this school trip

Brighton is a lively seaside resort on England's south coast and a great destination for a study trip on English, tourism and coastal geography. Its showpiece is the Royal Pavilion, the former seaside residence of King George IV. The palace has an Indian-inspired exterior and Chinese-style interiors, and shows clearly how Brighton grew into a much-loved resort.

The coast itself offers plenty of material for fieldwork. Along the seafront and the shingle beach your students study the groynes, the pier and the impact of tourism on the town. In the streets and shops they put their English to work with language tasks, interviews and treasure hunts, so the language comes alive naturally for both lower and upper secondary students.

We are happy to take care of the transport to Brighton for you and your students. The crossing is by ferry or through the Channel Tunnel; in our comfortable coach with an experienced driver your group travels there and back safely, and the coach is at your disposal during your stay. Please note: every traveller needs a valid passport. Also check in good time whether a UK ETA or a visa is required.
