Learning | Science and Industry Museum

Please note: The Science and Industry Museum is closed to the public until further notice (read the full statement).

If you would like to contact us about an existing booking please email learning@scienceandindustrymuseum.org.uk, including your order number, organisation name and visit date.

In the meantime we have range of home Learning Resources including educational games, videos and activities, which we hope can support you in working with your students remotely should you need it.

While our doors will be closed for a while, our incredible collection—and the inspirational stories it contains—remains open to you and your students online.

Given the uncertainty we are all facing together, it is not possible to say when our museums will be able to re-open to visitors, but we look forward to welcoming you back as soon as we can.
