TEACHERS’ AREA

You'll find our education programme supports your work in the classroom.

Enriching the curriculum

Racing to School delivers hands-on educational activities for groups of pupils and students in the 4-18 age range. We support a broad range of subjects and can design specific events around your needs.

Core subjects
Maths, Literacy and Science are highly relevant to the horseracing industry and are widely covered across all age ranges through a variety of activities.

Additional subjects
Our programme also supports Art, Business Studies, Citizenship, Design and Technology, Geography, History, ICT, Leisure and Tourism and Sports’ Science.

Logistical details

Our educational activities are normally delivered on a racecourse, whenever possible on a race day, on a date agreed with the school or college. The atmosphere of a race day offers a new, exciting experience for many young people, while enhancing their learning.

There are 60 racecourses in England, Scotland and Wales. Please see our map for your nearest one. We can also arrange visits to schools and colleges when it’s not possible for a racecourse event to be arranged. These visits can include a range of horseracing-based activities or workshop-type study groups.
