    Chapter 01

    Start with the student group

    SEDA Summer’s current agency information covers junior summer programmes in Dublin, Cork, Limerick and Galway, plus school mini-stay groups in Dublin and Cork. The right starting point is the students’ ages, the group size and the dates your clients are considering.

    Add the learning or travel priorities that matter to the group. If the dates or numbers are provisional, mark them clearly so the first discussion can focus on realistic options.

    Chapter 02

    Send a short, useful programme brief

    • Student age range and approximate group size
    • Preferred cities and possible travel dates
    • Programme type or learning goals
    • Accommodation or meal questions
    • Any dietary, medical or accessibility information that should be planned for

    Chapter 03

    Understand the partner support sequence

    The SEDA Summer agency page says approved agency partners have a named programme contact and access to programme and marketing information. Group pricing can be requested from the team; commission terms are shared when a partnership is approved.

    The site also states that groups receive a 24/7 emergency number on arrival. Ask the team to confirm the arrangements that apply to the specific programme, centre and dates before you finalise the offer with your client.

    Chapter 04

    Keep the next step simple

    If you are ready to discuss a group, send the brief through the agency enquiry page. If you already have a student group and dates in mind, request a group quote with those details so the conversation can move directly to programme fit and availability.
