Educational Sites
Our Education Volunteers lead inspiring visits to key waterside destinations across the UK.
We also offer in-school workshops and assemblies, all of which are free of charge, and learning at our museums and attractions for a fee. All activities are linked to the national curriculum and are highly regarded by teachers.
We work with home educator groups too!
Many of our sites have been awarded the Quality Badge by the Council for Learning Outside the Classroom.
