The castle educational team is keen to work in close collaboration with educational professionals on this project and to offer teachers an opportunity to discuss the programme or suggest themes and topics for more workshops.

The workshops will be linked to the National Curriculum and designed for Key Stage 1 (ages five to seven), Key Stage 2 (ages seven to 11) and Key Stage 3 (ages 11 to 14).

There will be seven different workshops to choose from. All will have an historical element and include at least one other subject.
