PGL Schools and Groups (Official) Welcome to the official page for PGL Schools & Groups! Visit us at https://schoolsandgroups.pgl.co.uk

Founded in 1957, PGL is the UK’s leading provider of activity courses and holidays for schools, colleges, youth groups and individual children and young people, with centres spread across the UK and France. In addition to adventure courses, we also operate a programme of cultural, language and sports tours for schools at centres in the UK and France. In winter, we also operate inclusive ski and snowboarding packages to well-known European resorts. PGL is widely recognised as the UK’s original and biggest operator of summer camps. In this context our name became known as “Parents Get Lost”, but we now also operate a programme of family holidays so that parents can come too!

One of our missions is to make outdoor adventure accessible to as many young people as possible. Having access to the right type of clothing is essential for an adventure that doesn’t stop when the rain starts.

That is why we’ve partnered with Regatta, as part of our Breakthrough Fund initiative.

Regatta have provided us with 6,000 waterproof jackets and trousers to be used by children across our centres, opening more doors to outdoor experiences. Whether that’s feeling the thrill of gliding down a zip line or pushing your limits to get to the top of the climbing wall, waterproof kit makes anything possible despite the UK weather.

Find out more about how our partnership Regatta Great Outdoors allows more children to access to outdoor adventure 👇

We're excited to be attending ICEF Berlin 2026, one of the biggest events in the international education calendar.

Our team will be at Stand 75 from 1-3 November, ready to meet new partners, reconnect with familiar faces, and share how PGL's adventure-led experiences help students build confidence, develop life skills, and put their language learning into practice through authentic, real-world experiences beyond the classroom.

The DfE Enrichment Framework highlights Sport & Physical Activity as a key area of enrichment.

We support schools to achieve this goal through football coaching and netball tournaments, where teamwork skills skyrocket, stronger bonds are built, and successes are celebrated together.
