Stop France trips UK schools urged
British schools advised not to travel to France before Sunday following Paris terror attacks
THE BRITISH Foreign Office has advised schools to cancel planned trips to France until at least after Sunday.
It said the guidance was in line with that of the French Ministry of Education, which has banned school trips in France in the wake of last Friday's deadly attacks that left 129 people dead.
In a statement, the Foreign Office said: “As part of the national state of emergency, the French Ministry of Education has cancelled all school trips within France by French schools until Sunday.
“This includes excursions to cultural sites (theatres, museums, etc) and travel by school groups on public transport. These cancellations don’t specifically include foreign school parties, but the French Ministry of Education has advised foreign school groups to avoid travelling to France until after 22 November.
“The Foreign and Commonwealth Office recommends that British schools planning to take groups to France between now and 22 November follow the French Ministry of Education’s advice not to travel.
"The French Ministry of Education has advised that school trips already under way in France may continue as originally planned.”
