Perhaps your school organised a gap year to a deprived area where the pupils helped to educate and assist local communities.

Or it was a life-changing experience that enhanced the children’s learning and opened their eyes to new communities.

Maybe it was a cultural awareness excursion which inspired the pupils in some way and made them make changes in their lives.

What changed while they were away? Awareness, understanding, empathy; did your excursion directly result in them growing as individuals and perhaps inspire their career path?
