School Bookings Teacher Training Teacher Training Universities We welcome visits from a range of subject university groups throughout the year. Please email [email protected] or call 01623 836627 to enquire. Your visit will include access to our two permanent exhibitions, collections of Holocaust objects, survivor testimony and memorial gardens. Trainee Teachers This course is designed for teachers that are training to work in primary and secondary schools as well as sixth form colleges. The course provides student teachers with the opportunity to consider the definition of the Holocaust and to explore current pedagogical approaches to teaching the Holocaust. There are opportunities to reflect on existing teaching and to consider best practice when teaching this complex and difficult history in the classroom. During the visit student teachers will also be able to explore our resources through educator-led visits to our Journey and Holocaust exhibitions, where we will explain how we use this content to help pupils to develop their knowledge and critical thinking skills. As a result of their visit, student teachers are able to reflect on how our resources can support their classroom delivery. Where possible, we also aim for visiting teachers to listen to a survivor speaker which will assist in furthering their understanding of the importance of survivor testimony in Holocaust education.
