The question

To ask the Secretary of State for Education, how many children in High Peak constituency have taken part in foreign school trips since September 2023.

Answered by Catherine McKinnell

The department does not hold information on overseas school trips unless the school is successful in applying for funding from the Turing Scheme, which is the UK government’s global programme for students to study and work abroad.

The department can confirm that for the 2023/24 academic year, no schools in the High Peak constituency applied to the Turing Scheme.
