New Lanark is an excellent educational resource with an award-winning range of services for schools, colleges and universities. School groups receive a specially discounted rate for entry to the Visitor Centre, our guided tours, and special guided sessions in Robert Owen's School.

The popular guided visits comprise a tour of the village and entry to the exhibitions and attractions in the Visitor Centre. Each tour can be tailored to suit the needs of the group and the topic being studied.

A comprehensive range of books, leaflets and teaching resources are available to support a visit. Look out for special educational events and activities that are organised throughout the year.

SANDFORD AWARD WINNER! New Lanark Conservation Trust holds a Sandford Award from the Heritage Education Trust - the citation reads:

"Educational groups are especially welcome at New Lanark which offers a stimulating educational experience for all ages. An impressive array of exhibitions, guided tours and experiences encourages all visitors not only to appreciate the living and working conditions in cotton mills in the early 19th century, but to look beyond to issues of conservation and living and working conditions throughout the world today".
