Cheltenham Activity Camps are on the OFSTED Voluntary Register. Part of our staff training is in the ‘common core skills’, identified by OFSTED. The common core skills can be found at www.Ofsted.gov.uk.

In addition to following common core skills, our staff also receive comprehensive training that includes:
