Home Education Day

As the site is only open for Home Educating families it is likely to be quieter than it would normally be at weekends or during school holidays.

Workshops are led by a member of the Education Team and are structured learning sessions that include elements of sharing resources and group work

We want to accommodate as many children as possible in our workshops, so we prefer not to exceed a 1:1 ratio for adults to children.

Due to space limitations, we cannot accommodate buggies in the Medlock Education Centre during workshops for this event. There will be a signposted space in the SSGB Experience Museum where they can be left.

For charged activities prices apply for all children attending (including non-participating older or younger siblings)

Please bear in mind, that workshop and tour content might not be engaging for children older or younger than the suggested key stage, and restless behaviour can impact the enjoyment of others in the audience, please consider this when booking older or younger children into sessions

Bringing a packed lunch? We have a covered picnic area (with patio heaters) available for you to use throughout the day. Alternatively, The Board Walk restaurant will be open 8:30am-4:00pm
