Special events for teachers

Our exclusive special events such as teachers' evenings and previews of IMAX films offer you the chance to enjoy the Museum without all the responsibilities of a school visit.

Teachers at the Launchpad preview evening

 Preview screenings of IMAX films and charged exhibitions
There are no IMAX preview screenings or exhibition previews scheduled at the moment. However, teachers are welcome to watch IMAX films or visit special exhibitions free of charge to assess suitability for their class, subject to the following:

  • you will need to show proof of teacher status, e.g. a union card or a letter on school headed paper, for free admission 
  • we can not guarantee free places during weekends and holiday periods, especially during half term holidays
  • family or friends coming with you to see the film will need to buy tickets at the normal price.
