Feedback and focus groups

Help us develop our educational programme

The Museum's educational programme covers activities and products for teachers that focus on both our onsite offer and online resources for the classroom.

As an educator, you can play a part in informing and evaluating what we currently offer. Your contribution can also help us create new products that fit your needs.

You can be involved in various stages of development: from early workshops that generate ideas, through to initial testing of a product and its refinement.

Teacher Advisory Network

The Museum's Teacher Advisory Network (TAN) is a group of teachers and educators who advise the Museum on ways to improve its current programme and develop new products.

  • More about the Teacher Advisory Network

    By joining the TAN, you agree to be contacted by the Museum to:

    • Assess our existing learning opportunities for EYFS and Key Stage 1-5 students
    • Advise us on the continued development of indoor and outdoor learning opportunities
    • Advise us on the role that the Museum can play in supporting teachers with the delivery of key national curriculum requirements
    • Provide feedback on new projects that aim to improve the engagement of students with the natural environment
    • Provide advice on our developing teacher CPD offer

    Some of the activities that you can take part in include research, testing and trialling of activities. These could be at the Museum, in school or elsewhere. Some will require digital feedback, others will be face to face.

    Please note that there is no obligation to be involved in a specific number of events or activities during the year.

    If you’re interested in getting more involved with the Museum, please email Dan Wormald in our Audience Research team.
