EDUCATION


The London Film Museum is the only museum of film history and film making in the UK. It has been created with the backing of major Studios, Distributors and Industry professionals.

For Teachers, the museum is extremely important. It can assist with the teaching of English, History, ICT, art, design and technology, music, film studies, maths, careers and can offer cross curricular opportunities for film making. It is suitable for all ages and ability levels.

All groups of 15 people or more get a free Guide for a tour of the museum, but we also run a range of workshops focussing on the art of filming making and animation. These can either be done in the museum or we can bring them to you (subject to location).

Alternatively please email our Education Manager

Ticket prices for schools and coach information can be found here>>. We provide a heavily discounted entrance rate for schools within the Borough of Lambeth, and for every 10 students, one teacher comes free of charge. Please contact us for more details.

Our Risk Assessment can also be downloaded here>> as well

"Just a note to thank you, and all the staff especially our tour guide who was knowledgeable and kept the right pace with our students.
We had a great visit - even better than last year and liked the improvements especially the cafe area.
Excellent value for money and a fun morning too!"
Hawley Place School
