GET provides opportunities for young people to complete the programme at the various levels: Bronze, Silver & Gold. Our focus is on the Adventurous Journey component of the Award, offering trips which encompass both the practice and assessment ventures.
For a number of schools in an international setting travelling overseas for their Adventurous Journey may be a necessity to ensure their Award Candidates can take full advantage of the setting and resources available to complete the Award successfully and safely.
Many of our school partners request for both the Practice and Qualifying Venture to be incorporated into a trip. The benefits of this are:
Ensuring that the Award Candidates can practice the required skills in the environment they will conduct their Qualifying Venture.
Add in reflection and rest days between both Practice and Qualifying Ventures, which in turn can also be used as an opportunity to further their experience in the country they are visiting.
Our options include both Exploration and Expedition options for schools in those destinations we offer the Adventurous Journey.
No – we provide example itienraires based on the first contact with a school and request for a specifc destination and type of programme. Once we establish the focus, number of days and other requirements, such as hotel standard, type of trsansport, food etc, we then fine tune a tailored programme that specifically meets a schools needs.
All schools will receive our terms and conditions with our first proposal. Our terms and conditions outline the payment schedule and terms of payment and cancellation. No trip is confirmed until a depsoit or full payment has been received.
The contract for any trip is between GET and the school. It is the school responsibility to liaisie with parents and students, sell the trip to parents and students and collect any payments as per our terms and conditions. It is the schools responsbility to enxure parents and students are aware of GET Terms and Condtions when promoiting a trip, and this includes payment and cancellation terms.
Our terms and contditions explain the process and period of cancellation and refund. It is important to note that once a school makes confirmation and initial deposit for a trip, comprehensive insurance cover should also be taken in the event anyone has to withdraw from the trip for various reasons which may be covered by the insurance. The period between confirmation and the actual trip dates is important to be covered fully.
