Learning and access

Museums and galleries are uniquely placed to offer varied and stimulating learning experiences for all ages. Through access to collections and their interpretation they bring history to life and give insight into our past and Scotland’s heritage.

We believe that everyone has a right to take advantage of these learning opportunities offering a safe and welcoming environment for all visitors.

We support our members in this area offering resources, advice and publications on this subject. See the Learning and access strategy page to find out about the current priorities for the sector.

In this section information can be found on Scottish Government priorities and relevant legislation concerning learning and social inclusion, as well as resources to help our members in these areas.

If you have any queries about learning and access please contact either of our Learning and Access Managers.
