Leeds Industrial Museum at Armley Mills runs a programme of workshops for schools. We offer a wide range of workshops which complement differing learning styles and provide an opportunity to handle and explore objects from the Museum collection.
We aim to provide a learning experience whereby students explore their own learning opportunities in a setting totally different from the classroom.
Each workshop closely relates to the National Curriculum and is led by a member of the Museum's Education staff.
Please search our Treasury of Learning database to find out what workshops are offered to school groups.
