We have an excellent learning programme focused on the First and Second World Wars, as well the conflicts affecting the local area.

If you are considering an educational visit please contact the museum to discuss your requirements. We can be flexible with timings and session lengths so please contact us to discuss your requirements. We recommend that if you have not previously attended one of our education sessions, group leaders should book in for a free familiarisation visit at the time of enquiry.

Due to the popularity of larger groups attending, we now offer Supported Visits. Our volunteer guides are on hand to answer questions in the gallery, show the uniforms and weapons, be along ‘Smart Street’, our WW2 outdoor area or in the WW1 trenches to answer the students questions. The groups would be led by staff from your school who are expected to move the children around the site. (£8.00 + VAT per student) 

Staff, parents, and supporting adults are responsible for the behaviour of their learners during the visit. Museum volunteers guide the sessions and appreciate your co-operation.
