Our Learning Team can support your work in the classroom through bespoke online Learning experiences on digital platforms.

These sessions can combine the use of our digital content with live interactive sessions. You will have access to experts at the Dockyard, who can support your class in their learning journey. This can include online sessions before a visit to introduce a new unit, or after a visit to consolidate learning.
