Educational Visits and Visitors
At Drighlington Primary School we believe that educational visits and visitors are a fantastic way to bring learning to life for children. We have carefully planned our range of visits and visitors to ensure that children have a wide range of cultural opportunities which link to their learning, embed their knowledge and widen their life experiences.
