Schools can get free admission by taking out an Education Group Access Pass (EGAP). This is an annual membership giving free access to all National Trust sites (terms and conditions apply).
Once you have a National Trust EGAP, you only need pay for the paid for workshop/ activity you'd like to book (details in the information pack). There are no additional charges for adults.
To find out more about EGAPs call 0344 800 1895, email enquiries@nationaltrust.org.uk or visit Membership | Education Group Access Pass.

National Trust members also receive free entry, so it is at your discretion whether to refund the entrance fee to members if you have included it in your package – this is not refunded by the National Trust.
Members must bring their current membership cards with them to avoid paying the full group rate. If any of your group would like to join the National Trust please direct them to our Membership page or call 0344 800 1895.
