Learning Resources
We are currently developing a range of free, downloadable PDF resources, suitable for P3-P7 (Y2-Y6) that can be used in the classroom, as part of Roman studies project work or for children working from home.
We always welcome direct contact from schools undertaking Roman history topics, local history projects and those that want to discover more about archaeology, museums, galleries, exhibitions, interpretation and research.
