Learning Outside the Classroom

Edventure Travel are proud to have been awarded the LOtC Quality Badge for our educational visits. This indicates that we understand a school’s needs and can change our products and offer to fit in with the current curriculum requirements and any other specific requirements of the group.

The Outdoor Education Advisors Panel (OEAP) endorses the Quality Badge and requests Local Authorities to recommend the use of Badged Providers and require the minimum of additional paperwork where Quality Badge accreditation is in place.

This means that you can book your trip with confidence, meet your due diligence and reduce the amount of External Provider paperwork necessary.
