Education team
Our talented team is made up of experienced qualified teachers, education guides, arts practitioners, and volunteers, all of whom have a passion for the Cathedral, learning outside the classroom, and the creative arts.
All of our popular trails, tours, and workshops can be adapted to meet the educational needs of each group and their curriculum objectives. You can find out more about our schools programme, here.
Teacher training
The Education team also offers sessions for teachers and trainee teachers, based around the Cathedral’s education programme. Please get in touch here for more details on how we can tailor sessions to meet your needs.
Mini visits
Before you bring a class of small children to visit the Cathedral we will work with you to devise a programme of your choice. Several of our trails – Cruz the Caterpillar and Special Places, are designed with the early years and foundation stage in mind. For more information please contact us.
