Education & Learning

Maritime Greenwich is a seat for further and higher education for thousands of students and post-graduates at the University of Greenwich and Trinity College of Music.

Excellent educational resources and facilities are available in Greenwich for students of all ages.

If you are a student or teacher of the national curriculum, you will find Greenwich’s royal and maritime history, its scientific associations and its classical architecture an invaluable resource.

Many visitor attractions in Greenwich provide educational facilities, with venues for group visits; programmes of courses, seminars and lectures; printed materials and web-based learning resources. The ‘Learning’ pages of the National Maritime Museum website contain full information for teachers arranging school-age visits. Trinity College of Music has approximately 30 projects running with local schools and community groups, which makes it possible for Trinity students to visit young and older people who have little access to music.

Adults wanting to find out more about the sea, ships, time and the stars can come to the National Maritime Museum’s Open Museum courses and lectures held throughout the year. The Greenwich Foundation for the Old Royal Naval College is able to arrange lectures for parties interested in gaining a deeper insight into the archaeology, architecture and history of the site and the Royal Parks Agency has occasional walks and lectures on the flora and fauna in Greenwich Park.
