End-of-year school trip: 1º or 2º Bachillerato?



The date of the end-of-year school trip is a very common issue when students get to Bachillerato. There is a lot of controversy about travelling in 1º or in 2º Bachillerato.

On the one hand, if students do the trip in 2º Bachillerato, they will have a great experience before they leave school. Besides, it will be a wonderful leaving party with the graduation.

In addition, students could save money for more time and, having more money, they can do a better trip or go to a farther destination.

On the other hand, students in 2º Bachillerato are very worried with Selectivity. If they take it, they will have to study.

Moreover, most of them are eighteen year old so they could think that they are grown-ups and then they could believe to have more freedom, but if they cause any damage in the hotel for example, it will have serious consequences.

Personally, I think that if students are responsible and they study every day of the year, the trip can be made in 2º Bachillerato and it can provide a unique experience for them
