Why take philosophy out of the classroom
Philosophy can feel abstract until you are standing in the Agora where Socrates questioned passers-by. Athens gives the subject a geography: democracy, ethics and metaphysics in the streets where they were first argued.
For A-level students the trip connects ancient philosophy to the modern debates in the specification. For many it is the moment the subject stops being a set of texts and becomes a tradition they are part of.
The ancient sites with expert context
The Acropolis, the Agora and the museums, visited with the ideas in view rather than just the architecture.
Links across the specification
Ancient philosophy connected to the ethics and philosophy of religion strands students study at A-level.
Discussion built into the itinerary
Time and settings for the arguments themselves, because a philosophy trip should involve philosophy.
