Are you highly motivated with a passion for developing and delivering learning and connecting young people to collections and heritage stories?  We are looking for a lively person with experience of museum learning and engagement to continue our reboot of our schools engagement programme.

Wycombe Museum has been delivering excellent learning and engagement experiences for over a decade. We relaunched our learning programme from May 2022 and it will be your job to take our sessions, our amazing handling collections and our stories to schools in our local area.

Your main focus will be to develop and deliver our new programme for local primary schools. You will be building on Wycombe Museum’s existing excellent handling collection, galleries, lesson plans and links with local schools to make sure we connect with young people across the area. We also currently deliver various informal and early years programmes, work with learning volunteers, and deliver other engagement and learning sessions. Your input will be invaluable in helping to evaluate these and develop our future strategy.

You will be working as part of a small and dynamic team at Wycombe Museum focused on encouraging collections engagement for all within our area.
