We are experts in finding creative ways to make our collections accessible and engaging for visitors of all ages and our curriculum-linked workshops across our sites cover History, Science, Geography, Art and Design, English and Maths.
Experiences include stepping back in time to the Victorian seaside, getting hands-on with fossils from Jurassic local seas and unravelling the mysteries of Stone Age Scarborough. Pupils develop a wide range of skills, from historical enquiry and oracy skills to creative writing and new art and design techniques. We also offer teacher CPD with subject experts.
