School Visits

What programmes are on offer?

The range of existing buildings and archaeological evidence left by earlier inhabitants enable the Learning team to run a varied programme of education sessions in different formats for a variety of key stages from foundation to A level.  Sessions are based in the Parkland, Old Hall, Mansion and the 1940s working farm.

We offer a series of living history programmes; site tours around the historic properties; themed study tours for younger visitors; Hands-on history days which are essentially activity based; Environmental days with the Rangers team and Literature sessions for secondary schools. 

In relation to purely historical context Tatton’s education sessions link in with study for Victorians, Tudor, Anglo Saxon, Viking, Medieval and World War Two.  Most sessions do have cross curricular links to drama, literacy, numeracy, geography, science and design technology.

Tatton Park Charitable Trust Subsidised Coach Scheme 2013

At Tatton, we believe that every young person should experience the world outside the classroom as an essential part of learning and personal development, whatever their age, ability or circumstances.

Many schools find that they are unable to attend our education programmes due to the additional cost of coach travel, which places the visit out of their budget range. With the generous support of the Tatton Park Charitable Trust, we run a Subsidised Coach Scheme, where schools who may find the costs prohibitive and have not taken part in a Tatton Education Programme before, can apply for funding towards the cost of coach transport to one of our Education Programmes.

If you think you may be eligible for the Subsidised Coach Scheme, or would like any further information, please contact the Tatton Learning Department on 01625 374 428 or TattonEducation@cheshireeast.gov.uk.
