Scottish school adventures that are ‘pure dead brilliant’
As a passionate educator, you know that some of the most powerful learning happens outside the classroom. It happens when pupils are scrambling up climbing walls, cheering on their pals through crate challenges, or falling in love with the great Scottish outdoors (even when it’s awfy dreich…).
Breathe fresh air into your curriculum
The Curriculum for Excellence encourages learning that’s active, relevant, and meaningful – and there’s nowhere better to experience than our beautiful outdoor activity centre in Perthshire. PGL Dalguise gives your pupils the chance to get hands-on with their learning, tackle new challenges, and develop skills that can’t always be found in the classroom.
Learning that’s anything but textbook
At PGL Dalguise, every activity is carefully designed to bring the Curriculum for Excellence to life through our tailored programmes. Whether it’s a bushcraft session, an orienteering adventure, or a team challenge supporting Health and Wellbeing outcomes, each programme supports Experiences and Outcomes (Es and Os).
We know Scottish schools. We know the CfE. And we know how to turn learning into something pupils will never forget.
Awe-inspiring trips aligned to the Curriculum for Excellence
All of our school trips in Scotland support the four capacities of the CfE:
Confident Individuals: Every child leaves PGL Dalguise having achieved something they never thought they could – whether that’s finding independence, speaking up in a group… or conquering their fears on the zipwire.
Successful Learners: Our school adventures are all about learning! From problem-solving tasks to eco-exploration, your pupils will learn through doing, and having a braw time while they do it.
Responsible Citizens: PGL Dalguise is surrounded by wild natural beauty, and we make the most of it. Our wide range of outdoor activities develops respect for nature and the environment, as well as an understanding of how our actions affect the world around us.
Effective Contributors: From building rafts to belaying friends, your pupils will share ideas, listen to others and work as part of a team – essential skills they’ll take back to school (and life).
Perfect for clusters, transitions and first-time adventures
PGL Dalguise is a top choice for cluster trips, P7 transitions, and first residentials. It’s local enough to be accessible, remote enough to feel exciting, and packed full of low-risk, high-reward activities that will help your pupils grow in confidence, without feeling overwhelmed.
