Welcome to our education service. Scottish Archives for Schools is a free educational website designed by the National Archives of Scotland (NAS) to support the teaching of Scottish history, as well as wider areas of the Scottish curriculum, in schools and colleges.

Find out about the history of Scotland and its people from the Wars of Independence to the Second World War. Design a wanted poster for William Wallace; study a selection of medieval documents and seals; find out about the lives of Mary, Queen of Scots and her son, King James, and about Scottish servicemen who fought in both world wars.
