What You Say

The students LOVED Joe from Innocent, they felt he spoke to them on their level.  Aylesbury grammar School

The trip was great thank you. The lectures were very good too, the speakers gave some really great information about Business and ICT and the Business students commented that it would really help them when they came to complete their case study work in year 13.  Fort Pitt Grammar School

Good level of content about Superdry for A Level. Excellent insight into culture for Business - both Innocent and Superdry.  Stanwell School

We definitely want to come back next year. Your trip represented better value for money than the rival company as the pupils had one more day in the park.  Churchdown School Academy

Excellent service throughout. Any queries answered swiftly. A smooth experience.   The Joseph Rowntree School​

Incredibly smooth-running and well organised tour! Will definitely be using EST again.   Harris Academy: South Norwood
