About Us
Historic Workshops travel to schools nationwide, to provide highly-engaging, hands-on learning that is second to none. We have more 5 star reviews on Facebook than any other workshop provider. We also have the largest Facebook following too! Our 6 workshop leaders pride themselves in providing a professional service that aims to deliver each workshop to as many children as possible.
Most schools we visit re-book us for the following year, or for other workshops that we provide. Since our beginning in 2016, we have seen a huge rise in popularity year on year, which is a true testament to the quality and value of our workshops.

The History of Historic Workshops |
Where we are now |
|
Historic Workshops was started in 2016, by Leigh, who was working part-time as a Primary School Teacher. It all started with just one workshop: WW2 Workshop. Feedback from the workshop was very positive, and soon, Roman Workshop was also born. After an unprecedented amount of bookings in the 2017-18 school year, Leigh finished teaching to run Historic Workshops full-time.
|
Historic Workshops has now delivered workshops to hundreds of schools nationwide! We have 6 workshop leaders: Leigh, Adam, Penny, Richard, Lucy and Adam B. We deliver 14 different workshops from the Stone-Age through to World War Two.
