Education

When pupils are enjoying a lesson it shows. It shows in their attention levels, in the effort they put in and the results they achieve. The Education Programme at The Merlin Entertainments London Eye offers maximum educational value through unique and stimulating learning experiences.

From every angle, the London Eye is an exceptionally useful and inspiring educational tool. This is because so many different disciplines went into its creation and there are so many ways in which it can be used to exemplify aspects of learning - whether in specific areas such as design, technology, architecture and engineering, or more broadly to promote numeracy and literacy, commercial or community issues.

“I was delighted by the consideration given by the staff and their wonderful manner with the children....they were superb!”
Mary Williams, Assistant Headteacher, Chad Varah Primary School


The London Eye Educational Programme

Working in collaboration with practising teachers and educational advisers, we have created a programme of events and activities linked to the National Curriculum for pupils of Key Stage 1 to 3. Supported by our educational resources, a flight on the London Eye, followed by a River Cruise can stimulate the imagination of pupils and create an exceptional out-of-the-classroom learning experience.

Find out more about our full range of educational products.

Downloadable Educational Resources

Bring the learning opportunities from a visit to the London Eye to life with our easy to use downloadable educational resources.

Each resource contains a wide variety of activities for you to set for your pupils before, during and after a visit to the London Eye. Imaginative and stimulating, our comprehensive educational resources are developed in conjunction with practising teachers and are mapped to aspects of the National Curriculum.
