About education at The National Archives

Find out about our approach to education, what to expect when you part in one of our online or in-person workshops, and more of what we have to offer for teachers and students.

We believe that school students should be given the same access to original documents as professional historians. This deepens their understanding of how knowledge about past events is constructed. It shows them how historians ‘make’ history and it empowers them to undertake their own research, question received opinion and learn how to distinguish between conflicting interpretations in a 21st-century media society.
