CTRL+C: We have an update...

Our Gold Education sessions are fully booked for this academic year (to July 2026).

The National Museum of Computing is absolutely delighted to share details of our exciting programme of educational events: Digital Future Days. Collaborating with committed partners within the tech industry enables us to bridge the gap between National Curriculum guidelines and digital skills needed by future employers through specialised workshops. These events are themed by National, and International celebrations throughout the year and inspire attendees to explore tech-related careers in areas of interest.

Due to generous sponsorship, our Digital Future Days are FREE to attend OR heavily subsidised to increase accessibility. These workshops are not only open to Academic Institutions, we also welcome Home Educators. Accessible to all, we host regular Relaxed Opening Days for SEND Learners to explore our unique collection and benefit from our educational provision in a carefully controlled environment.

Take a look at our calendar here to see what exciting events we have coming up next!
