XP Trust has welcomed over one thousand visitors, from all over the world, to our eight schools over the last two years. These visits, whether a couple of hours or a couple of days, have been experienced by people from all walks of life.
For example, we have had visitors from as far as Australia and America, some from India, Israel, Norway, Spain and other countries, as well as many visitors from across the UK.
They come to XP schools to learn How We XP. They learn all about ‘Crew’ and why it is so important throughout a child’s life at school. They learn how Expeditionary Learning is planned, delivered and celebrated throughout our students’ educational journeys.
Having people visit our schools allows us to share and reflect on our work, provide professional learning opportunities for our staff and students as well as encouraging feedback and critique of our model.
Our students learn how to be ambassadors for their school by having the opportunity to speak with visitors. They share information about our Trust, show their work, talk about ‘Crew’ and Expeditionary Learning. They learn how to speak to visitors, grow in character and become confident when speaking to the public.
At XP Trust we are all very proud of our schools and would love for children all over the world to experience the XP way of learning.
