Off Site Activities Terms & Conditions

GENERAL

Students who are no longer on the Academy roll prior to any off site activity, will not be permitted to travel and will forfeit all monies paid.

NON-REFUNDABLE DEPOSITS

All deposits are non-refundable.

NON-REFUNDABLE PAYMENTS

Should a student withdraw from the trip or be unable to travel, monies received are non-refundable unless covered by the insurance, or there are students on the waiting list for the trip who are able to take the place.  Deposits, in this case, are still non-refundable as the Academy has to pay the administration charges for name changes to the Travel Company. In the event that a trip is cancelled by the Academy all monies will be refunded.

PASSPORT

All students are required to have their own passport which must be valid for at least six months after the date of travel.

EUROPEAN HEALTH INSURANCE CARD (EHIC)

This trip requires students to have an EHIC, available free from any main Post Office, online www.ehic.org.uk or by phone 0845 606 2030.

HEALTH FORM AND EMERGENCY CONTACT DETAILS

It is a pre-requisite for every trip that students provide a completed and signed form, containing details of any existing medical conditions plus details of any medication they are currently taking.  Twenty-four hour emergency contact details for students must be provided to the Academy prior to the trip.

CONDUCT

The Principal reserves the right to remove any student, from any trip, in the event of a serious behavioural incident occurring prior to the date of travel.

INSURANCE

Health and travel insurance is included in the price of the trip.  Full details can be made available on request.

FORCE MAJEURE

The Academy cannot accept liability, make any refunds, or pay any compensation where circumstances amounting to ‘force majeure’ prevent travel.  Circumstances mounting to ‘force majeure’ includes; any event which the tour company or Corby Business Academy could not, even with all due care, foresee or forestall, such as (by way of example not by way of limitations) war, threat of war, riot, civil unrest, industrial dispute, terrorist activity, natural or nuclear disaster, fire, acts of God, adverse weather conditions, and all similar events.  The final decision concerning the safety and viability of any trip rests with the Principal, who will, where possible consult with parents beforehand.

PAYMENT SCHEDULE

Any default in payment, unless previously agreed with the Finance Office, will result in the place being withdrawn.  Any monies already received will be non-refundable unless there are students on the waiting list for the trip who are able to take the place.  Deposits, in this case, are still non-refundable as the Academy has to pay administration charges for name changes to the Travel Company.
