In order to collect data for creating a comprehensive guide to planning school excursions, a survey was conducted among teachers, school administrators, and students. The survey included questions about the current practices, challenges faced, and areas for improvement when it comes to planning and organizing school excursions.
The survey found that a majority of teachers and school administrators expressed the need for a more organized and structured approach to planning excursions. Some of the key challenges identified included budget constraints, lack of clear guidelines, and difficulties in coordinating with external vendors and attractions.
Furthermore, students highlighted the importance of hands-on learning experiences and the need for more interactive and engaging activities during school excursions. They also emphasized the need for excursions to be educational and aligned with the curriculum.
Based on the survey findings, a comprehensive guide to planning school excursions was developed, which includes detailed steps on budgeting, risk assessment, transport arrangements, communication with stakeholders, and evaluating the success of the excursion. The guide also provides suggestions for interactive and educational activities that can enhance the learning experience for students.
