About this site

This education website is a subsidiary section of the London Canal Museum main website. It has its own distinct identity and is divided into three sections:

• The Teacher Zone - aimed at the teaching profession and also at others with a professional interest in education and museums, such as home educators. The Teacher Zone has a different style to the rest of the site, as it is for a different audience. It includes pages to guide teachers on the resources, offline and online, that London Canal Museum has to offer. These are grouped by curriculum stage and offer a comprehensive catalogue of our extensive resource range. All teacher-led materials are available for free download.
• The Learning Zone - aimed at children The main offering is a set of seven "enquiries" aimed especially those studying at Key Stage Three of the UK National Curriculum. These enquiries comprise a question and six "slides" of answers. They are all illustrated and many have additional "pop-up" illustrations and additional text available. In the Learning Zone there is also a quiz, suitable for older children and adults, and a drawing to colour, suitable for younger children.
• The Family Zone - aimed primarily at parents or at parents and children together. This is a different route to the resources and includes some additional material aimed mainly at parents and guardians.

All pages have a link either to the main education menu, or to one of the Zone menus as appropriate.

We welcome feedback on the education site. Please use the feedback form on the main site.
