Secondary Workshops

 At Wakefield Museums & Castles we have an engaging programme of secondary school workshops and resources across a variety of exciting curriculum topics.

We use a rich collection of historic objects and awe-inspiring heritage sites to bring the past to life and create memorable and interactive learning experiences for pupils.

All of our educational sessions are flexible and can be adapted to meet your school’s particular needs.

If you don’t find the topic you are looking for within this programme, just let us know. We always welcome suggestions for new topics and opportunities to work with schools and teachers to create new programming.

For enquiries or more information, please email museumslearning@wakefield.gov.uk
