Sixth Form/Further Education Colleges

We welcome Sixth Form/Further Education College student groups for self-guided visits or guided visits.

Our Sixth Form/Further Education College offer allows students to investigate who Florence Nightingale was and what she did for nursing and healthcare. They are able to discover who the real person was and deepen their understanding of Florence’s achievements, moving beyond the ‘Lady with the Lamp’ legend.

We’d recommend booking a tour to enhance your self-guided visit.

Tour Options

Self-guided museum visit (up to a maximum of 30 people)

On arrival at the museum the group is welcomed at the front desk, the facilities are pointed out and they are given a verbal description of the layout of the museum. The group then look around the museum at their own pace, we recommend allowing at least 45 minutes for this. Due to the size of the museum groups larger than 50 people will need to split and book multiple time slots. There is no additional charge for this option.

 

Museum Tour (up to a maximum of 25 people)

On arrival at the museum the group is welcomed at the front desk and the facilities are pointed out while they wait for their tour guide. This tour is provided by a member of the museum team. The tour guide will tell the story of Florence Nightingale’s life and point out significant objects around the museum. The tour will last between 25-30 minutes, and then we recommend allowing at least another 30 minutes for the group to look around on their own.

£80.00

Due to limited space, we must limit the number of people of our tours or talks. If your group is bigger than the maximum number, you will need to book more than one tour or performance.

For self-guided groups, our maximum number of visitors is 30, so larger groups will need to book two or more time slots.

Please note that all tours and talks are subject to staff availability.
