EDUCATION

 

From one day to six day fieldschools – opportunites to experience archaeology first-hand. 

Fieldschools are provided at different locations around South Yorkshire and offer a range of practical and educational experiences.
 
Structured training programmes ensure that you will receive tuition in a range of fieldwork techniques and background information on the site and project worked on.
 
Our teaching team are all qualified to Post-Graduate level with teaching experience ranging from 3 years to 20 years in classroom and outdoor settings.
 
Fieldschools are suitable for a wide range of learners. They are also an excellent way to develop  team and individual skills, with co-operation, accuracy, leadership, initiative and analysis among other critical skills developed.
 
 
 

Touching an artefact that has been in the ground for thousands of years; investigating a landscape that has been occupied by humans through different time periods;
fieldwalking, geophysics,excavating,
recording and
cataloguing
can all form part of the archaeological.

 
Age and ability are no obstacle as the range of experiences available are so broad. Excavating is part of a vast range of archaeological


You could learn to identify seeds from Mesolithic sites, illustrate an artefact, excavate a feature or identify sites from aerial photographs with expert tuition and guidance.
 
These skills and many more can be experienced and enjoyed.
