School Trips to Stratford Upon Avon
Thousands of school groups flock to Stratford every year to enjoy the iconic sights and shows found in Shakespeare’s home town.
No trip to Stratford would be complete without a visit to the Royal Shakespeare Company’s main theatre. There are few better settings for English and drama classes to discover the work of the world’s most famous playwright, brought to life on stage. The RSC put on a varied selection of Shakespeare’s plays throughout the year, as well as creative educational visits and theatre workshops.
Even beyond Shakespeare, the surrounding area of the West Midlands is packed with fantastic activity destinations for students of all ages – from the magic, myth and adventure of Warwick Castle to the delights of Cadbury World. NST are on hand to help tailor the ideal school trip for your group.
