If you’re a teacher or educator interested in art and creative technology, find out how you can arrange a school tour, download learning resources or get involved with a long-term project.
Schools & Educators Offer
We always deliver free artistic activities that introduce children and young people to new ways of thinking and using technology. This programme aims to inspire them to make connections between the things they learn in school and their identities, and communities outside of class. Whatever the subject, we can work together with you to provide the right tools for learning.
VISITING FACT
Guided tours of our exhibitions - FREE
Come and visit our exhibitions and enjoy a free guided tour led by our friendly team! Each tour can be tailored to your group and includes a brief introduction to FACT’s history as well as insights into our current exhibitions. Tours are the perfect way to engage deeper with the artworks on display and enhance your group's trip to FACT.

Facilitated workshops - FREE
Alongside your visit we can offer free workshops for your group inspired by the exhibitions.
We can deliver workshops that are tailored to the interests of the young people, creating a welcoming space for participants to get involved. All workshops take place in FACT’s Studio/Lab on the Third Floor.
FACT VISIT YOUR SCHOOL
Workshop - FREE
Alternatively we can come to you. We can adapt the workshops above to be facilitated in your school by us. We can work to your school's needs and can provide any relevant technology. This again is all free.
We are an Artsmark partner and work with schools at all stages of the artsmark journey and are happy to discuss how we might contribute to your Artsmark intention document. In collaboration with artists and teachers, we work towards FACT becoming a resource for learning. We do this by co-designing art-based educational experiences, creating bespoke learning resources, and hosting CPD sessions and professional events for educators.
Whether you visit us or we come to you, the sessions ensure young people can share their perspectives on technology and explore different ways they can create art. The artists we work with and the art the young people create may not be the type of art young people are used to.
We are happy to provide bespoke workshops, based on your needs. Just drop us an email and we’ll be happy to discuss. Email us at: learning@fact.co.uk
