More about this Workshop/Service and the Provider
We welcome school groups and teachers to guided and self-guided visits, artist-led workshops and teacher events, both at the RA and in the classroom.
The Royal Academy is temporarily closed until further notice – the safety of our valued visitors, loyal Friends and staff is our highest priority.
Ways to visit as a school group
All school visits are free
School guided tours
Guided tours are tailored for the specific needs of primary and secondary school children. Students are encouraged to think about art in new ways, to consider practice and intention, and articulate how they understand and experience the work. The tour will be 30 minutes and led by an expert guide with a focus on the national curriculum. Enquire below to arrange a tour.
Self-directed visits
Visit an exhibition without a guide and experience it at your own pace, focusing on works that you feel are most relevant for your students. You can make a visit to our new permanent Collections Gallery without booking.
Monday morning private views
At these private views your group of students will have the galleries to themselves to spread out, talk about and sketch artworks. These private views can be led by our team of gallery guides or self-directed. Private views are available on Monday mornings 9–10am.
School workshops at the RA
Book an artist-led workshop for any age range in the Clore Learning Centre.
Students with SEND
At your school
We offer outreach sessions at your school, tailored to your students’ access requirements. In these sessions, experienced artist educators will visit your school and lead an art-making workshop customised to your students’ needs and interests. The sessions are free of charge and will last roughly 2 hours depending on the nature of your group.
Our outreach workshops are now fully booked for the 2019/2020 academic year. If you would like to receive updates on our programme for students with SEND please sign up to our mailing list on our website.
