In my research into the issues surrounding the organisation of educational visits, I stumbled upon Hyundai’s research findings, revealing a disheartening statistic: 61% of teachers were less inclined to organise school trips than five years ago. This decline highlighted the potential loss of invaluable learning experiences for our students and ignited a desire to address this growing issue.

Witnessing firsthand the complexities and escalating costs of trip planning, I was spurred into action. It was this fusion of frustration and determination that birthed TripPA, a platform envisioned to simplify and enrich the trip planning process, dismantling unnecessary barriers. Drawing insights from fellow educators and harnessing the technical acumen of my brother James, a systems architect (and voiceover artist!), TripPA emerged as a commitment to transform trip planning into an enjoyable, efficient, and collaborative experience for all involved.
