Welcome to the National Archives of Scotland Education Service.

Our service, Scottish Archives for Schools, sets out to educate, inform and engage teachers and pupils who wish to connect with Scotland’s history, heritage and culture.

Archives provide inspiration for active learning across the curriculum. We hold records dating from the 12th to the 21st centuries. They include charters and government papers, legal and church records, wills, letters and diaries, maps and photographs.

Our resources and activities are designed to support the principles of Curriculum for Excellence and provide opportunities for pupils to experience and interact with these unique items from our past.
