While the recent good news with regard to the easing of restrictions promotes optimism, we are still progressing cautiously towards the reintroduction of overnight and overseas visits with children under 18. As the UK continues to follow the roadmap for the easing of restrictions, we are beginning the process of assessing the possibility of overnight residential visits within the UK resuming from October 2021. We are awaiting further guidance from the Government but we remain committed to our Travel Program being an essential part of each child's learning journey at TASIS England.

October is a month of education through travel here at TASIS England. Every year during October half-term week, we offer exceptional travel opportunities for all Upper School students (Grades 9-12). We organize trips to several different destinations. The trips are assigned by grade level and linked to the Upper School curriculum. We endeavor to offer a healthy balance between traditional sightseeing and hands-on, activity-based experiences for our students on each trip. 

Besides a professional tour director from one of the travel agencies we work with, every TASIS October trip is accompanied by at least two TASIS England faculty members, who ensure the overall well-being of each individual student during their travels.

In addition to the traditional and popular October Travel Week, the February Ski Trip, and the service trips to Romania, there are educational Overnight Field Trips during the school year planned by subject teachers, as well as Varsity sports teams who go on mid-season and end-of-season trips to tournaments. The Model United Nations (MUN) activity travels twice, usually to The Hague, Netherlands and Barcelona. Please contact Mr.Tim Wainwright, the Educational Visits Coordinator, to find out more about the TASIS England Upper School travel program.

Students in the Middle School (Grades 5 to 8) participate in both field trips during the academic day and overnight field trips through the Middle School Travel program. The entire Middle School, Grades 5-8, will travel to PGL Liddington at the beginning of the school year for an outdoor adventure trip that will provide leadership and bonding opportunities. Later in the year, students in Grades 6-8 who are studying foreign languages may participate in trips aimed at immersing them in their target language. Students in Grades 6-7 also have the option to participate in a trip to Greece that links closely to the history curriculum. Fifth-grade students traditionally go on a three-night overnight trip in the UK in the Spring.
