  1. UK / Europe Uni Tour 2014

  2. A 7-day tour, in the last week of June / school summer term, of a series of very different universities (types / sizes / courses) stretching from Germany to central England, all in one week. Flight there (and / or back) with flexibility. Year 10s miss school, year 12s a fallback uni prep week, year 11s post-exam period. Only once every 2-3 years so now or never!

  3. Aims • Enable DBS students to see a number of UK universities (like most UK school students would get to) • Show you the wide variety of different uni types (regardless which country you want!) • Lead you to consider non-UK options • Enable you to directly ask questions to professors, rather than through HoC at DBS

  4. Countries itinerary • Germany and / or Belgium (if possible) • Holland • UK (3-6 unis; non-business courses) • … but relevant to all national systems 1- or 2-way. Rhine valley to mid/north England. At the end you can disperse to UK destinations, or be returned to LHR for whatever flight you need.

  5. Possible destinations (tbc) • Heidelberg / Cologne • Maastricht • Utrecht / Amsterdam / Ghent / Antwerp • Canterbury (campus) • UCL / Imperial / Central (various London) • Oxford (collegiate) • Birmingham (redbrick urban)

  6. Daily schedule • Breakfast, morning visit to nearby uni (2-3 hrs) • Lunch and some sightseeing / shopping if suitable • Travel direct to next destination • Dinner, brief reflective meeting • Hostel / hotel each night near to next uni

  7. Costs • Unknown at present – 3 tour companies are competing to return us a detailed cost / itinerary • Probably the ballpark of foreign WWW trips • Costs include flight, accommodation, transport, main meals (but you can bring extra if you like)

  8. Flexibility • Some 11s might have exams and come late or leave early on a different flight • Others may have tickets pre-booked In both cases we can accommodate individual variations. You will still pay an equal organisational cost share (minus flights, accom) and you must get to us – we won’t collect you.

  9. Showing an interest • www.dbscareers.wordpress.com/eurotrip • Express interest NOW if tentative • If you wait and it fills up, tough • Open to other Taaleem schools after 3 days We can’t promise it will run till operators confirm availability but if they do we need to move fast and know who’s interested already.
