Northern England is historically important with key destinations such as Hadrian’s Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and the magnificent Norman Cathedral in Durham.
With excellent attractions offering an insight into both ancient and more modern regional history, there are venues suitable for every school. The North of England really is a perfect environment to support work in all areas of the National Curriculum, teachers will be spoiled for choice.
Durham and The Normans 1 night
This is a unique opportunity for students studying The Normans. The vast cathedrals of the late 11th and early 12th centuries, colossal in scale by European standards at the time, emphasized the power of the Normans. This trip can help bring the curriculum on the Normans to life!
