How many students can we bring?
We currently have enough education spaces for groups of up to 60 children per day. Enough adults need to accompany the children according to the following ratios: 1:4 for Reception, 1:6 for KS1, 1:8 for KS2, 1:10 for KS3. These ratios do not provide for one to one support.
All activities will be led by members of our experienced learning team who will be delighted to share their extensive knowledge of Knole with you. Please note however, that the behaviour of the students remains your responsibility at all times.
What are the admission prices?
The National Trust is recognised as being Britain’s biggest classroom and is one of the largest educational resources in the world. By taking out Education Group Membership, the whole school or other not-for-profit education groups can enjoy free entry to National Trust properties for a year.
