Further information

Staff and assistants accompanying groups remain responsible for the students while on site. 

All members of the group should come dressed appropriately for all weathers.  Our sites are open for the enjoyment of all.  Staff should be aware that some members of the public may bring dogs on to the sites. 

Pre-visits

We advise all members of staff who are planning to bring a school group to the site for a school visit to come and meet the Education Team and the site.

Approval for visits to Kent Country Parks

Kent County Council’s County Parks Education team are vetted by Kent County Council to provide educational activities to schools and youth groups. Visits to our sites do not require Local Authority approval if activities are led by our Education Ranger Team.

School staff who plan to lead activities involving water should contact the Outdoor Education Unit well in advance to discuss the activities to see if approval is required.
 
For further information please see the summary guidance from the Outdoor Education Advisors (DOC, 500k).

Booking Procedure

Please contact our Education Rangers to discuss your requirements and any special access needs.  We will send you a booking form to complete and return within 3 working days and an evaluation form to complete on the day of the visit.  We use all information to support us in developing and enhancing our programmes.
