Remembering that we are current teachers who have planned and led many expeditions in Africa…..
Are any of these thoughts in your mind?
- Not sure where to start?
- Is it safe?
- I need to create a proposal for the SMT or Governors. How should I approach this?
- How can I market this to students?
- Which students should I target?
- Can I get help with a presentation?
- How would this fit against the current trips profile at the school?
COLT’s forte is the red tape and paperwork. Here are some examples of the specific areas we could help you with:
- Trip proposal to the SMT
- Initial letter to parents
- Overviews of the expedition locations and activities
- Appropriate insurance
- Visas and border posts and yellow fever
- Risk assessments
- Immunisations
- Malaria
- Money and Currencies
- School indemnity forms and parental consent
- Pre-departure documentation for parents
We can also help with advice on trip logistics. This could include advice on for example, circular verses linear itineraries, optimum trip numbers, age group dynamics, campsite and lodge descriptions how best to tackle border posts and where you will get the cheapest deals on optional activities.
