Education

The Potteries Museum & Art Gallery provides a range of inspiring workshops from Foundation to Key Stage 4 classes. Our workshops have been carefully developed to inspire, involve and motivate. We offer hands on, interactive workshops where your pupils can get up close to our amazing collections. Our collections include: local history, natural science, fine art, craft and ceramics.

All our workshops are designed to support learning in the classroom and we are able to make adaptations to workshops to suit any access needs.

Following the government’s latest announcement on local coronavirus restrictions, the museum will be temporarily closed until further notice and school visits will not be running. While the museum is closed you can still hire our School Loans Boxes to support your class teaching. You can also access our free learning resources on our Family Home Learning Page.
