Media request: paying more than £1000 for a school trip

[RhiannonEMumsnet]

Hi there,

We've received the following media request.

Thanks,
MNHQ

My name is Eleanor Tait and I'm with The Times. I'm looking to speak with parents of children in private schools who have recently paid £1,000 or more for a school trip. We're looking for someone who would be happy to be pictured and named, and whom we could interview this week. Please contact [email protected].

A 1k plus trip doesn’t sound like much. A 5 day trip to a basic LEA outdoor centre that is ‘run on a shoestring’ subsidised by Council Tax Payers is over £500 these days…
