The Learning Services
Department supports learners of all ages who wish
to access the Trust and its resources for educational
purposes. We do this in many ways but especially through
educational programmes and events for schools and
interpretive displays for visitors to the properties
in our care.
Who we are
Our Learning Staff work hard to ensure that a high
quality educational provision is available at as many
Trust properties as possible. Two of our Learning
managers focus on developing and delivering Resources
and Events and some properties have Learning Managers
and Learning Officers whose role is to support, develop
and deliver Learning Programmes to a variety of users.
Our Interpretation section is based at our head office
in Edinburgh. The Interpretive Project Managers and
Interpretive Designer are responsible for planning,
commissioning and project managing the interpretation
provision at the properties in our care. This may
range from full scale exhibitions in Visitor Centres
to individual leaflets or panels.
Our Departmental Assistant is the first point of
contact for individual enquiries.
What we do
We organise special events, programmes and resources
for schools, details of which can be found in our
Schools Programme. Copies of this may be obtained
free of charge by phoning 0844 493 2417 or by clicking
here. Should you have particular requirements
contact us to discuss these when you are planning
your visit.
Our aim is to make the resources of the Trust and
the expertise of our staff as widely accessible as
possible. Countryside Rangers offer environmental
educational programmes and educational visits to our
properties are always welcome. Should you have particular
requirements our learning Managers will be happy
to discuss these with you when you are planning your
visit.
