Secondary Schools: Key Stages 3 &4
Pupils can benefit from trips to historic sites at every level of their education. A visit to Newcastle Castle will help pupils develop a deeper understanding of history and of their place in it and will put what you teach about in the classroom into context.
Our dedicated learning team can provide a cost effective way of engaging your students with history and firing their enthusiasm through our guided tours of the castle site, including the Black Gate Barbican, or gatehouse, and the Castle Keep.
Prices (2026)
Guided Tour: £4 per pupil
Self-led: £3 per pupil
Please note that these prices do not include the use of our Learning Room. If you would like to book the room for your students to have lunch in, there is an extra charge of £30
