Museum and Art Gallery | Community Museums | Nature Centre | Loans Service | About us | What's New
We are a team of teachers who work with pupils when they visit Museum sites. We teach across the age range, from 4 years - 18 years. All our teaching sessions are closely linked to the curriculum and to schools needs. Children can take part in role-play, drama, historical investigation and discovery, critical studies and art activities, science explorations, maths workshops and much, much more!
We write information for teachers about the Museums and their collections, and produce plenty of activity sheets and worksheets for pupils to give a structure and curriculum focus to their visit. We only provide these when a visit is booked.
Teachers can attend INSET courses held at all the Museums. Courses focus on a particular subject, curriculum area, exhibition, or Key Stage relevance.
We run a loans service which has over 200 boxes of objects, ranging from Ancient Egyptian artefacts to zoological specimens. Teachers can borrow loans to use in the classroom for a half-term.
