A student trip to London is filled with incredible learning opportunities. The capital of the UK has both a rich history and an evolving culture for students to dig their teeth into. Our Learning Adventures in the city are as diverse as the location itself with a whole myriad of options. We have itineraries centred around a range of subject areas from politics to art, economics to history and a whole load more. Obviously, London has some headline sights to see and our tours can take in the likes of Big Ben, Westminster Abbey and St Paul\u2019s Cathedral- but there\u2019s plenty more beneath the surface of this buzzing metropolis. This blog highlights a few of the awesome things that you can do on a student trip to London.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Start Up Sessions<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

London is home to some incredible start up businesses and East London is teeming with ambitious new firms seeking to mark their mark on the world. We arrange visits to a number of small firms and these can be adaptable depending on the subject area. Perhaps- you are keen to hear how an emerging sustainability consultancy has made its way. Or we have arranged talks with young founders in the tech space. These sessions give students the opportunity to ask questions about how to break into certain sectors and the day to day lives of entrepreneurs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>The Globe Theatre<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

This is an activity that can really help you step back into a bygone era and imagine the London of the Elizabethan era. The theatre is a reconstruction of the original version where Shakespeare\u2019s plays were performed. We arrange a tour of the facility where you can discover more about the incredible history of the theatre and how the plays were received in the 17th<\/sup>century. What\u2019s more- in the summer- you can replicate the experience of the original viewers by watching a performance from the \u201cyard.\u201d This refers to the standing area and it gives viewers the chance to watch some of the country\u2019s best actors perform Shakespeare.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Street Art<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

On a student trip to London \u2013 we like to arrange visits to areas that might counter pre-conceived expectations of the city. One aspect that never fails to provoke is the street art scene and we arrange a walk through some of Shoreditch\u2019s finest murals and pop up galleries. This gives students the chance to see an evolving part of London\u2019s culture and to admire some provocative art pieces. Our guides will help to unlock the meaning behind the works and explore the role art has played in the capital\u2019s history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Live sport<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

London is home to some world-renowned sporting stars and has a huge scene beneath it as well! You can pay a visit to Premier League grounds for a stadium tour including a visit to the city\u2019s most recent European champions: Chelsea<\/a>. Alternatively \u2013 there\u2019s a whole load of other sports that can offer an insight into this important part of British culture. You could check out a cricket game, rugby match or non-league football game. This would offer an interesting cultural perspective and a fun experience.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Publishing profile<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

London plays host to one of the world\u2019s most thriving literacy scenes and has been the inspiration for a number of the nation\u2019s most famous works. It is also a place where young book-lovers seek employment in the highly competitive world of publishing. One of the options we offer on a student trip to London is the chance to directly engage with professionals working within the publishing industry. You can arrange a Q and A with one of the capital\u2019s literary agents. Her role is to find authors, promote their work and negotiate deals for them. You\u2019ll be able to gain an insight into how the world works and a sense of how to enter the industry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/span>Quidditch<\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

Whilst we don\u2019t have a specific wizarding tour- we do offer students the chance to try Quidditch in the home of Harry Potter. This fictionalised sport has inspired an actual game and you can have a lesson to master the basics and learn about how it is played. An experience that has to be done to be believed!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
