Self-led resources for Primary schools
From Our Toolkit
You can offer self-led visits to your heritage organisation, this can be onsite or remote learning activities. Your collections and stories are a rich resource for schools so providing access to them is a great way to start building a relationship with your schools audience.
The Open University’s Enhancing pupils learning on school visits is an short online training course exploring how pupil learning can be enhanced on schools visits to museums.
Self-led school trails: a toolkit for developing trails with impact looks at developing self-led trails for teachers and pupils on site.
Remote learning is becoming more common, the Virtual delivery for schools offered by the National Museum Wales is a example of what and how museums are delivering straight to the classroom.
