Currently, Disney are offering buy one get a child one free dual park ticket so you don't have to stay on site. I think with the same validity as the accomodation offer above.

Well that makes the price I found with Eurostar even more value - £242 for 3 days at Santa Fe, Eurostar tickets, then only £72 extra for the entrance tickets. The Eurostar tickets alone cost separately around the £160 + mark.

PS for anyone who thinks the 11+ was abolished in the 1970s, it is still taken throughout Kent, in parts of Essex, Buckinghamshire, Yorkshire, Sutton, West Midlands, Lincolnshire and a few other places. Our eldest has just spent 6 months practising for this IMO awful test and and it's well worth a trip to Disney for passing.

PPS the OP asked for help with Eurostar quotes, not coaches. I personally would not go on a Leger coach to Disneyland as 1) you don't get there early enough on the first day to get any good time in the park and 2) the coaches stink of smokers and I couldn't sit there with that smell (it's my job to board these coaches).

I suggested Leger as I went on a Disneyland Paris trip with them on Eurostar, I didn't suggest a coach trip.

I have been to Disneyland Paris on a coach with Ledger too. As you'd expect smoking was banned and the coach was totally clean and not smelly at all. The drivers stopped for ten minutes a couple of times along the way for trips to the loo, that's when the smokers had a cig. It was a very enjoyable drive both ways.

As for not going to the parks on the first day we were fine with that. We wandered about got our bearings and had a great time at Disney Village. Not a problem at all. We were bright and refreshed and first at the gates in the morning!

Hi JackieO

I found return flights from Luton for you both for £39.48 per person?

I know it's a bit of a way but hey that price is unbeatable?

What about using Tesco clubcard points to get tickets for the Eurostar? It only goes in to Paris and not to Disney but you could get the RER straight to Disney. Dream Castle, if you book direct is £78.42 for a room with either 2 x queen beds or 1 x king and bunk beds. Then you just need to get your hopper tickets.

Not in Kent, it is still in operation with all school children having the choice of taking it.
There still are grammar schools in almost every town in Kent .
