Schools & youth

Children, young people and teachers who come to Springhead, whether for a residential stay or a one-day trip, take away wonderful memories. Located in beautiful unspoilt Dorset countryside in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, Springhead is a very special place. Many schools return year after year.

Our friendly staff make every effort to ensure that the visit is a success and that everyone from the group leaves the centre feeling enriched by the experience. Springhead’s staff have many years’ experience of teaching in schools as well as at Springhead.

This was the second time we have chosen Springhead and once again we were filled with immense gratitude, admiration and awe in regard to the beautiful surroundings and the staff who work tirelessly to provide our disadvantaged young people with a wonderful holiday
