Outside the Classroom Manifesto
Heritage Open Days is delighted to support the Learning Outside the Classroom Manifesto, launched by the Secretary of State for Education and Skills on 28 November 2006.
The Manifesto is a ‘movement’ or joint undertaking that many different stakeholders have helped to create and to which anyone can sign up. We have endorsed the Manifesto because we believe it will help to ensure that all children and young people have a variety of high quality experiences outside the classroom environment, as an essential part of their learning and development.
We will therefore be working with schools, local authorities, parents, carers and the many other organisations committed to providing an exciting range of teaching and learning opportunities outside the classroom.

Updated Teacher's Pack
We have updated our popular and successful Teacher's Pack and it is available for free download from this site.
Schools in our first year target areas were sent hard copies of the substantially revised sections, while schools in our new target areas (Bournemouth, Hastings and Nottingham) were sent copies of the full, revised pack.
If your school is not in one of our target areas, please do feel free to download the pack and try out some of the ideas. We'd love to know how you get on.
