Boreatton Park
Near Shrewsbury and 1½ – 2 hours drive from Birmingham, Manchester and Liverpool, Boreatton Park has recently undergone a £1 million upgrade including the addition of a new sports hall.
On the Development courses the activities on offer will relate to the course material - for example a lot of challenging and team activities are chosen - this allows students to evaluate their own approach to problems and behaviour within a team.
We have found that activities such as raft-building, orienteering and our Jacob's Ladder create memorable examples of types of behaviour that students can easily relate to in the classroom.
