The Education Centre

We have a well-equipped Education Centre onsite that is available for use during school visits. The Education Officer can provide a range of activites here that either add a further dimension to the experience of a guided tour or introduce a different aspect of the Cathedral’s life and heritage. With its own courtyard and cloakroom facilities this offers a safe learning environment for a variety of groups. It is also availabe just for lunch (at a small extra charge) for groups booking a tour of the Cathedral.

The Education Centre is a modern building overlooking a herb garden laid out with a small selection of the plants that would have been grown by the Abbey's Infirmarer.

The venue is a very bright and flexible building offering a practical space for less formal functions, workshops or activities. This has proved a popular venue for use by local businesses for training and boardroom style meetings and can hold up to 35 for theatre style presentations and discussions.

Full catering and hospitality can be arranged and any equipment that is required can also be hired in. For more information about hiring this venue please call 01733 355315 or email benedictrooms@peterborough-cathedral.org.uk.
