History field trips

Inspire and immerse pupils in history as they discover Britain through the ages on a YHA field trip.

An important factor of teaching history is enabling pupils to have an understanding beyond the simple facts and figures, of the historical events, people and places that shaped where and who we are today. What better way to achieve this than through the first-hand experience offered by a history field trip?

Explore the recreated Celtic village at YHA Castleton Losehill Hall and get hands on with authentic weapons and shields. Become time detectives and trace a timeline of the city from past to present when you stay at YHA York. Uncover hidden medieval secrets by staying the night at our very own castle, YHA St Briavels.

Whether it is AQA, EDXCEL, OCR or Eduqas, or a self-led or tutored opportunity you are looking for, we probably have more great history options available than you think! Filled with opportunities to gain hands-on learning experiences in unique historical settings, our history school trips are designed to inspire and involve pupils as they discover Britain through the ages. They’re great value for money too!
