Our first session of training events, focuses on Gloucester’s lost schools and how we can find out about them.

Wednesday 14 April, 1 - 2pm. Free of charge

You'll explore a wide range of school records from the Archives' collections, looking at why they exist and importantly, what they can tell us about the buildings and institutions that are no longer there. You’ll then watch a digital story about Gloucester’s lost schools, followed by a live question and answer session with the trainer . By the end of the session, you will have gained an understanding of how records in the Archives can be used to inform our understanding of the past.

Gloucestershire Archives announce a new programme of themed training events, where people can learn and develop archive- related skills connected to a specially selected theme.

Delivered by expert staff, these sessions are designed to help you get the most out of the Archives’ collections and to learn and develop the skills to look after your own.
