Learning at Rutland County Museum

Rutland County Museum is a fantastic space for learning outside the classroom. Whatever topic your class is studying our museum staff can help bring it to life. Whether you want to come along to a facilitated session run by our staff or come along for your own visit we’ll try and make your visit as fun, exciting and beneficial as possible, whilst making sure it runs smoothly.

Our aim…

…is to provide inspiring, active and fun educational experiences within Rutland County Museum and Oakham Castle (based on our displays and resources and informed by the wants and needs of local teachers).

And even better...

All sessions are free for the Spring and Summer Terms 2012.
