At Bright Future Private School, we believe learning is most powerful when students experience the world around them. To enrich learning and balance academic growth with enjoyment, each student participates in two trips every academic year:
- One educational trip that supports curriculum learning
- One fun and recreational trip that promotes wellbeing, teamwork, and joy
In addition, students may have opportunities for extra trips such as:
- Inter-school competitions and events
- Ministry-initiated educational programmes
- Special invitations for cultural, academic, or innovation-based activities
These trips vary by year depending on the availability of competitions and external opportunities.
Balanced Experiences, Lasting Memories
Offering both educational and recreational trips allows our students to enjoy a well-rounded experience that supports academic growth and personal wellbeing. Beyond textbooks, these visits help students:
· Explore new environments
· Build teamwork and independence
· Strengthen cultural understanding
· Develop confidence and resilience
· Create treasured school memories
Safety First
All trips follow strict school and UAE guidelines, including risk assessments, supervision plans, and clear communication with families. Safety and student welfare remain our highest priority. Staff are fully briefed before each visit, students are reminded of behaviour and safety expectations, and appropriate medical and emergency information is always carried. We also review every trip afterwards so we can continually improve our procedures and provide enriching experiences in the safest possible way.
Our Trip Structure
Educational Trips
These visits are designed to deepen subject understanding, build real-world connections, and encourage curiosity. Students explore places that align with the UAE curriculum, UK curriculum, and key areas such as history, science, culture, innovation, and Islamic studies.
Examples of educational visits include:
- Sharjah Science Museum – exploring UAE history and the formation of the Union
- Quranic Park – connecting Islamic knowledge with real-life experiences
- Cultural & Heritage Sites – understanding Emirati traditions, values, and identity
These experiences help students strengthen academic knowledge while understanding the heritage and development of the UAE.
Fun & Recreational Trips
We believe that joy, wellbeing, and friendship are essential to a child’s school experience. Our fun trips provide students with opportunities to bond, relax, and create memorable moments together in a safe and supervised environment.
Examples of fun trips include:
- IMG Worlds of Adventure
- Legoland
- Candy Museum
These trips are planned to ensure students enjoy exciting activities while developing confidence, communication, and social skills.
