School visits

Find out how castles, palaces and great works of art can inspire learning

Group of school children outside the Palace of Holyroodhouse

Bring the curriculum to life with a visit to one of our inspiring sites in London, Windsor and Edinburgh – combining history and art in the unique setting of our working royal residences.

We offer a rich programme of interactive workshops, tours, learning activities and resources for UK based nursery, primary and secondary pupils.

We can also bring our sites into your classroom with an interactive video call or, in some cases, an outreach visit.  Themed sessions explore the history of our sites and the Royal Collection.

Read how we ensure the welfare and wellbeing of children and young people in our Safeguarding Policy.
