Disneyland® Paris Education Programme Working with the full support of Disneyland® Paris, Study Experiences’ dedicated aim is to provide your students with a highly beneficial learning experience, interwoven with fun and practical exploration.

Subject-Specific Seminars You will attend two forty-minute multimedia seminars, delivered to an audience of 100-200 students, and led by our professional facilitator with considerable experience of Disneyland Paris and its working methods. Students will explore a series of case studies linked to relevant examination specifications. As a result of our exclusive access to Disneyland Paris’ senior management during the creation of the Study Experiences, members of the Disneyland® Paris management team and many other Disney backstage experts add their personal input to the seminars. This input is regularly updated through new video footage filmed behind-thescenes at the Resort and at Disney’s London offices by Study Experiences.

Interactive Workshop For the workshop, students will be divided into groups of 30-40 and then split into smaller teams of 8-10 to ensure they participate in a fully interactive and tailored learning experience. Each group will work with a Disney expert, when typical Disneyland Paris managerial and operational issues will be analysed and used to inspire creative work by students, giving them a real taste of life in the fast-moving world of theme park resort management and operations.

Study Experiences enables students to discover how their subject is put into practice at Disneyland® Paris. The educational content has been developed exclusively by Study Experiences in conjunction with subject teachers and senior managers at Disneyland Paris, to provide a unique insight for students. Our fully organised and highly relevant education programmes are designed to meet clearly defined learning objectives.

We offer the following Study Experiences at Disneyland Paris: ✓✓ Business Studies ✓✓ Design and Technology ✓✓ Health and Social Care ✓✓ ICT & Computing ✓✓ Mathematics ✓✓ Media Studies ✓✓ Performing Arts ✓✓ Science ✓✓ The STEM Roller Coaster Experience

Programme Content Your students will attend two multimedia seminars and an interactive workshop, which will provide a unique opportunity for students to discover how their subject is put into practice at this world famous leisure destination. Our education team has been given the exclusive opportunity of meeting, filming and spending considerable amounts of time behind-the-scenes with Senior Managers at the Resort, discovering how they and their departments use their expertise and experience to entertain millions of guests every year. During their time at Disneyland Paris, your students will be led by our team of expert facilitators, who regularly work on projects at Disneyland Paris and have an excellent understanding of the values and processes used to entertain over 12 million guests every year.

To provide further support to the Study Experience, our education team has created subject-specific Student Workbooks, that include assignments to help students focus their minds whilst enjoying their time at Disneyland Paris. Assignment work is optional, however the assignments have been designed so that they can be undertaken by students during the Study Experience, for example whilst they are exploring the Disney Parks.

Your Choice of Disneyland Paris Hotel Accommodation Study Experiences’ Educational Tours programme includes hotel accommodation located on-site at Disneyland Paris. Therefore as well as enjoying safe and secure Resort accommodation, you are also within easy walking distance of Disneyland Park, Walt Disney Studios Park, Disney Village and all the Resort facilities throughout your time away. Your group can choose to stay at one of two of Disneyland Paris’ uniquely themed on-site hotels, that recall times and places in American history. Like a scene from a Wild West movie, the 14 frontier style buildings of Disney’s Hotel Cheyenne are grouped around a main street of covered porches and wooden walkways. The Western styling runs right through to the bedrooms, which have one double bed and two single beds, bathroom, TV and telephone. Students are accommodated on the basis of three sharing a room at Disney’s Hotel Cheyenne. Named after the majestic American redwood trees, Disney’s Sequoia Lodge is reminiscent of the famous hunting retreats found in the U.S. National Parks. Accommodation is in the main building itself or in one of the five lodges. Decorated in hunting-lodge style, bedrooms have two double beds, bathroom, TV and telephone. Hotel facilities include an indoor swimming pool. Students are accommodated on the basis of two sharing a room at Disney’s Sequoia Lodge. Study Experiences does NOT charge any supplements for under-occupied student rooms where this is due to your breakdown of male or female students not fitting exactly into rooms of three at Disney’s Hotel Cheyenne, or rooms of two at Disney’s Sequoia Lodge. Breakfast is included in the price of the Study Experience.
