• On site learning: Activities, prompts and discussion ideas that help pupils observe, question and engage with a historic house through curriculum linked lenses.
• ‘Inspired by Towneley’ activities: Simple, adaptable tasks to use before or after a visit, designed to deepen understanding back in the classroom.
• Sensory exploration: Guidance on identifying spaces, textures and moments that support sensory seekers and help all learners connect more confidently with heritage environments.

Every attendee will receive include a tailored teacher handbook packed with practical ideas, ready‑to‑use activities, and adaptable frameworks you can bring straight into your planning.

All participants will receive a certificate of participation to add to your CPD record.

This full‑day programme gives you the chance to explore Towneley Hall in depth, connect with fellow educators and gather fresh inspiration for your curriculum planning. Along the way, you’ll enjoy a delicious lunch, plenty of hot drinks and a relaxed atmosphere that encourages conversation, ideas and collaboration.
