Education Visits to Portsmouth Historic Dockyard

The Learning Team of Portsmouth Historic Dockyard invite teachers and their families to attend a Teacher Open Weekend on Saturday 3rd - Sunday 4th March 2012! For full details and how you can apply for a place on this limited availability weekend, please click here.

Our learning venues; Action Stations, HMS Warrior 1860, Mary Rose Museum, National Museum of the Royal Navy and HMS Victory offer a fantastic range of education visits for groups at all levels from Foundation Stage through to Post 16. We provide experiences that can't be created in a classroom and bring learning to life.

All visits are designed to maximise pupils' learning experiences and depending on your learning outcomes, time and budget you have available there are a range of options to suit your needs:

Discovery Visits:
Lead your group on a self-guided visit to one or a combination of our venues. Trails, activity sheets and resources to assist with pre and post visit studies and guide your visit are available to download here. Click here to see Discovery Visit Prices.
