Abstract:

Tourism is defined as social and spatial mobility and a school trip is one of its multiple forms. Most teachers consider school trips one the most important methods of working with pupils. Tourism and sightseeing fulfill a number of social functions, which is why proper planning and conducting a trip are so significant. The analysis of the interviews and questionnaires conducted among the teaching staff of a Spanish primary school, along with the observation of pupils, shows that the actions taken are concentrated on local and international mobility, the latter owing to the Erasmus + program. According to 85 per cent of respondents, the alternation of local and international trips offers young people greater opportunities for development, although it undoubtedly requires more effort and involvement.
