Crime and punishment will be naturally covered in the tour, our ex-prison officers inspire pupil’s curiosity to know more about the history and to recognise what it was like to be incarcerated from the Victorian era to the modern-day.
Guided tours are included in all school trips; additional activities can be added to suit pupils learning requirements.

Pupils will be split into groups, placed into cells and given an allotted time to escape using puzzles and clues.
