We offer a busy educational programme for local schools and colleges. Schools are encouraged to visit us and make use of the Museum's themed activities such as our popular Tudor or WWII sessions. These 'hands on' workshops have been designed to fit in with the demands of the current National Curriculum. Details of the Education Service can be found here.

The museum's Discovery Boxes, each containing a collection of objects on a particular theme, can be hired for use in the classroom and are always in great demand.

Members of staff are also available for Outreach sessions and INSET to bring handling and costume sessions to the school.

The Museum's staff are experienced museum educators and enjoy bringing to life objects in the Museum's collection for visitors of all ages. Our services are constantly evaluated by teachers and we consistently receive top marks for the quality of our sessions.
