Educational visits at Paultons Park can be tailored to meet the requirements of each school. Typically, park-led groups are met by our teaching staff at an allotted time and location. Most workshops are supported by stimulating worksheets which can either be completed during the workshop, or back in school as a follow up. Our workshops are run by experienced staff who are able to adapt their teaching style to suit the needs of learners. We run a fabulous mix of workshops, all based around the National Curriculum. Professor Blast’s Laboratory is a stunning venue for a session based on physics, animals or ICT. For older students, we run a range or presentations – great for business or tourism courses. These range from customer service, marketing to a general Paultons overview and case study of Paultons Park.Â
