SEND Schools and groups

We provide story-based workshops and gallery tours for classes and groups from SEND and SEMH schools. Any of our school visit workshops can be adapted by our experienced learning team to suit the needs of your students e.g. Fantasy Map Mission can involve the students creating a 3D map on the floor of the workshop room our of props and fabrics before journeying through the space on a fantasy quest or drawing their own map using pens and paper, depending on each student’s needs.

We know that your class sizes can be smaller and that you may need to bring lots of adults to support your students and will not charge you extra for additional adults so for groups of between 6 and 11 students please email [email protected] for a quote.

For 11+ children the price will be as per the school visits https://www.storymuseum.org.uk...

“I just wanted to email to say thank you for the amazing experience you provided for our students last week. The young people we work with are a wonderful and interesting group with a range of challenges and needs and barriers to writing but their response to the Enchanted Library and the writing workshop was, actually, *incredible*. Our workshop leader tuned into the group so easily and was so gentle and encouraging that even our very reluctant learners were open to having a go. Many wrote more than I have ever seen them write independently!” Year 10 SEND teacher

Sensory Storytelling Sessions

We provide 90 to 120-minute sensory story sessions for groups of disabled people. The sessions begin with a live oral storytelling using multisensory approaches. This is followed by a guided tour of the Museum and ends with a session in which the participants can explore the world of story through craft, role play, toys, props, dressing up and more oral storytelling. We can tailor this to a story (book, film, comic strip etc.) that your group particularly enjoys.

For the best experience, sessions should be booked for no more than 15 participants at a time. We welcome the opportunity to discuss the needs and requirements of your group at the time of booking.

Cost (all accompanying carers visit for free):

£14.20+VAT per head for groups of 6-10 participants, excluding accompanying carers £13.60+VAT per head for groups of 11-15 participants, excluding accompanying carers

For groups of 16 participants or more, we ask that you divide your group to have separate sessions. These sessions may be run simultaneously or at different times depending on the availability of session leaders. The Learning Team will discuss the best options with you.
