Learning Volunteers
In this role, you will work on building and delivering a learning programme for visitors, families, schools, and special interest groups who visit the museum. This will include both formal (i.e. taught sessions) and informal learning, working closely with the school national curriculum.
You will create and develop educational resources to be used across these groups, and liaise with local groups who may benefit from our educational offer.
