Spring term 2026: onsite sessions

Our on-site sessions, led by experienced history educators, take place in inspiring learning spaces at The National Archives in Kew. Students will get to see and handle a range of original documents, to investigate the past in an active way. Our sessions deepen students’ understanding of evidence and develop their skills of analysis.

We accommodate group sizes of between 8-35 students, and all groups must be accompanied by at least two adults.

If you require a change in the time of the session to suit travel or timetable needs, please make a note of it on the booking form.

Please note that certain workshops can be taught at different Key Stages.

Please visit our website for more information on the delivery of sessions and to download preparation packs for use in the classroom prior to your visit.
