Home educator sessions

*Important Notice: Bookings for December currently on hold*

 

We're making some changes...

Having now run three home educator days since we re-eopened, we've spotted some things that aren't working as well as we'd like in our booking system. 

We're busy making changes but it means we're having to delay the on sale date of our next session until November, so please do not try to book this.

We're still intending to run the December session as planned, but this is subject to us testing the new booking system and being confident it works effectively. 

Thank you for your patience while we make improvements.

Our home educator programme

From September 2024, our home educator days will be on the first Friday of each month during term time. 

On each day there will be a programme of workshops, shows or theme days from the education programme. There will also be Planetarium shows scheduled that are suitable for the relevant Key Stages.

Space will be reserved in our picnic area, so you can bring packed lunches.

 

 

How to book:

We are currently reviewing the booking process to make it more streamlined and intend to release tickets for our December session in November. Please do not try to book the December session via phone or email as we will not be able to process your request.

We're making amendments to the year's schedule PDF, so have temporarily taken it down to avoid confusion. Apologies for any inconvience caused.

What's new? 

While we've been closed, we've talked to you about how we can improve our home education programme.

We'll be seeing if the following changes help make our sessions more inclusive and accessible, so do let us know what you think:

  • Where space is available accompanying siblings can be brought into the sessions if pre-booked (T&Cs apply).
  • Over 12s will not need to have a supervising adult with them in the sessions (but they do need an adult present in the venue).
  • The content will be identified via Key Stage and you can decide which workshops will be suitable for your children.
  • We will be sharing the schedule for the full academic year each summer for longer term planning.
  • The sessions wherever possible will be on the same day each month to help with planning and routines.
