Throughout the year we offer a range of work for primary schools with a focus on commissioning and programming top-quality theatre and storytelling, supported by in-school education programmes.

Our aim is to present work that is a compelling introduction to theatre for younger audiences, while promoting innovative teaching and learning models. Our partnership programmes are flexible and user-friendly, enabling teachers to decide how they would like to experience the National Theatre.
