Secondary schools: Practical workshops

There is a maximum of 2 workshops per school within an academic year, so you can request a booking for up to 2 classes.

• School contact details
  Finance contact details. Although our sessions are free for UK schools, late cancellations and no-shows may incur a charge
• Teacher contact details. If you’d like to visit with two groups on the same date, each group must have a different lead teacher. Providing the same teacher details for every group will delay your booking
• Please book your Gallery session before you book transport.

• Group sizes are 10-25 students per session.
• You can book two groups in a single booking request, please use the ‘Add another group’ option. Groups can differ by key stage, theme, date and time of their visit.
• There is a maximum of 2 workshops per school within an academic year.

Please let us know 21 days prior to your session if you need to cancel. Cancellations made with less than 21 days’ notice and no-shows will incur a charge.

Some of our themes can be adapted for SEND groups, although you may be interested in our 'Explore it!' and 'Sense it!' multisensory sessions, which are especially designed for SEND groups, and allow for flexibility and co-planning with group leaders. 

Please contact us for more information about how we can meet your group’s needs. We recommend a maximum group size of 10. 

Please specify in the booking form if your students have special or additional needs.

Unfortunately, workshops are currently not offered for overseas groups.
