There are opportunities for self-directed learning. Staff are on hand to answer enquires, and there is a regular programme of lectures and workshops. School workshops are linked to the National Curriculum and are based on the museum, the collections and the temporary exhibitions.
There is also a range activities for children every school holiday, details of these as and when they happen can be found in our Museums events section.
