“The first lesson of economics is scarcity: There is never enough of anything to satisfy all those who want it. The first lesson of politics is to disregard the first lesson of economics”
ECONOMICS & BUSINESS STUDIES
POLITICS & LAW
Latitude Group Travel custom designs tours to link to the Economics, Business Studies, Politics and Law curricula. Our expertise enables us to develop or identify specific, curriculum-linked, experiential learning activities to engage your students in active learning. We also take into account the General Capabilities in the Australian Curriculum and the International Baccalaureate Learner’s Profile.
ALMOST ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE!
There are endless tour options that we can offer. We work in consultation with you to carefully craft the ultimate customised tour. Your tour is designed around all or one of the units, electives or choices that you have made.
SAFETY IS OUR PRIORITY
Safe and secure travel is paramount for us. Between our Managing Director and CEO alone, we have over 35 + years travel experience, in particular in worldwide, educational, student, group travel.
COMBINING SUBJECTS ON THE ONE TOUR
Our expertise allows us to organise your tour so that several subject groups can travel together successfully. Imagine all of your groups concurrently engaged in their own area of interest – workshop, clinic, class or themed guided tour (and more). Combine your IB students with your mainstream curriculum and we will ensure relevant activities for both groups. Later, enjoy sightseeing and a range of other experiences together, so the groups feel as one. Considering a tour in this way will assist with economies of scale and helps meet your minimum participant number requirement.
Many of the subjects in the areas of Economics, Business Studies, Politics and Law, Accounting etc can be combined to develop an itinerary suited to all. We can access workshops and activities that cross over from one subject to another. In addition to the experiential learning activities that we access on tour, Latitude Group Travel can also develop relevant projects for each group to complete.
Only your imagination can limit what’s possible in the development of a tour for one or a combination of several of these subjects. Talk to us about what’s possible.
