Chester Cathedral
Chester Cathedral
A focus on education is embedded in the mission statement of the cathedral and is evidenced in the warm welcome and care offered by the Education Department to all visiting groups.
The department consists of a full-time Education Officer and a team of volunteers, all of whom are CRB checked and able to work within the safeguarding policy of the Chester Diocese.
For schools we are able to offer tailored tours and workshops to suit all age ranges. These sessions cover an extensive range of curriculum and non-curriculum subjects and use a variety of learning styles.
We also welcome visits from non-school groups including foreign language tours, uniformed organisations, church children and home-educated children.
The Education Department was awarded the Sandford Award for excellence in heritage education in July 2009.
