Learning Outside the Classroom

Coventry Transport Museum is a great place to learn new things and enjoy new experiences, whether you come with your family or with your school or college. 

Our dedicated Learning Team deliver engaging sessions for pupils of all ages. The Museum is an ideal setting for learning outside the classroom and our hands-on sessions cover a wide range of curriculum areas. 

The Museum is also a perfect place for a family day out. Our school holiday programmes provide imaginative activities for families to enjoy together, including craft activities and quiz trails for a small charge.
