Workshop Fees and Travel Costs

Value For Money and Guarantee:

Most schools request our services due to the fact that children aquire more knowledge from a workshop than visiting a Temple.  A BHS workshop also helps to avoid high coach hire costs, time consuming pupil letters, risk assesments and other logisitics involved in bringing pupils to a Temple.  

 

We guarantee your establishment lowest costs and high quality presentations.  We are prepared to fit in as much as possible within your school budget.  However, it may not be possible to do so if your budget cannot cover our basic travel and hotel expenses.

More About Costs: 

Our priority is to visit all types of schools in UK, Ireland and other countries, therefore our service charges are set up so that we are 'affordable for you'.  We offer seasonal promotions and ccassionaly concessions may be applied depending on the circumstances.   Most schools are satisfied with our rates and rarely ask for reductions as they often comment that they are getting much more than they expected.

 

Budget:

Most schools find it easier to budget having us come in and present the subjects rather than hire transport and arrange excursions to Temples and Gurdwaras.   Schools generally prefer us to visit because we are specifically set up to present the subject academically and culturally.

Booking Deposit:

If the booking date is over 12 weeks prior to the workshop date, we will require a 20% holding deposit to secure the date.   Due to circumstances beyond control, sometimes schools have to cancel the workshop with short notice and it will not be possible for us to offer that day to another school.

 

Special Concessions:

In the event of genuine hardship, we can try to work out a better rate to compensate your school budget.  As we always work on a very tight budget, we are restricted to how much we can do to help. However, we are commited to visiting every school requesting our specialised services and will endeavour to meet your budget restraints to the best of our ability.

 

Low Average Cost For Two Presenters:

Fun Learning always provide a male and female teacher so you get twice the value for your school.  A typical whole day workshop costs anything from £340 to £470 plus travel and a half day averages from  £195  to £275 plus travel depending on whether we have a promotion offer on at the time of your booking.  

 

Travel Costs:

Travel costs are subject to the location and proximity to a school we have visited prior or just after your chosen date.  We are based in the West Midlands area which is central to most of the UK schools and calculate travel to you from there.  

 

Proximity Travel:

Occasionly, if and when we are visiting schools in Milton Keynes, Stroud, Manchester, Newcastle, Glasgow, Cardiff, Dublin and Enniskillen in Northern Ireland near to the date(s) you choose, we will calculate travel from one of those locations.  We always do our best to arrange your booking so that we are within a closer proximity to you, thus keeping costs to minimum.

 

Cancellation Fee:

In the unlikely event of a school cancelling a firm booking, a standard fee of £90 will be applicable  to compensate our company's losses due to the cancellation.

 

No Hidden Extras:

Overnight accomodation such as hotels, B&Bs and sundry expenses are included within our general charges.  All fees include VAT.
