- Timetable 1 and Timetable 2 allow for slightly more time in the Human History Zone and Belong Zone (great for History topics such as ancient Egypt).
- Timetable 3 allows slightly more time in the Fossils Zone (great for Science topics such as adaptation or evolution).
- Changes to timetables can be requested after booking
- A Big Question package can be added for free to any timetable.
What else do I need to know?
- The minimum adult to pupil ratios (excluding adults providing 1:1 support) that we recommend for school visits are: 1:6 for Early Years & KS1; 1:8 for KS2; and 1:15 for KS3, KS4 & Post-16.
- Your visit is likely to include seeing taxidermied (deceased) animals and a real, partially-unwrapped, mummified person. Supporting pre-visit resources will be provided.
- A Hazard ID list and our Risk Assessments are provided when you make your booking.
