Doesn't sound like it.
We went in a visit to a linoleum factory once. All I remember is the smell.

Who said DEI is dead? Not in the UK. The teachers haven’t got the memo.

They have certainly changed from our days, I remember going to see the odd play , usually our set piece in English or we were once taken to see the Tutankhamun exhibition in London but for some reason we didn't ( think it was the queues) and were allowed to wander London till it was time to go home. It was 1972 so I would have been 13/14.

How does this enhance the curriculum? Not history.

So can I. Don’t think I would be too happy if I were a parent.

I can think of many more valuable school trips.

My 12-year-old granddaughter’s school is running a trip to various gay-themed venues in celebration of Gay etc. History Month….. I am glad such things are more openly discussed these days, but I admit to being quite surprised. Even her mother is surprised!
