Excellent venue, facilities and contents. However, we brought 90 Year 6 children and felt that it was too big a number to be accommodated all at once. There was too much hanging around and waiting initially.. we could have just gone in and started our work, as we had organised our own worksheets and were familiar with the surroundings. (November 2018 - Primary School)




Free access and great exhibitions (October 2018 - Secondary School)




excellent content but poorly laid out, galleries roll into one another. Suggest starting at the top. Students need guidance or worksheets,very content heavy (July 2018 - Secondary School)
