School Workshops

We have a wide range of interactive and exciting workshops available to book, covering the breadth of the National Curriculum and Key Stages.

Whether you choose to bring your pupils to one of our sites, prefer us to come into your school, or opt for one of our virtual workshops, our sessions have been adapted to make content safe for you, your pupils and our staff.

Free Sessions!

We often offer free pilots for new sessions on a first-come, first-served basis. This is to enable us to refine the content prior to general release, so it is a condition of taking up a free session that you are willing to give us detailed feedback and take part in promotional photography as necessary.

To be sure of hearing about free pilots on offer, sign up to our teachers’ mailing list.

Lunch Spaces

Please be aware that there are no dedicated lunch spaces in our venues. You may be able to book a space to eat your packed lunch on site, but please enquire in advance. A small housekeeping charge is applied for use of the lunch space at Wakefield Museum.

More information

On booking, you will be asked a number of questions to enable our staff to work in line with your school guidelines.

Please note that outreach sessions are usually only available to schools within the Wakefield District. If yours is located further afield please do contact us directly at museumslearning@wakefield.gov.uk to enquire - we may be able to help depending on distance/timings.
