About the Ragged School Museum
At the heart of the Ragged School Museum is a unique classroom, which recreates a glimpse of Victorian life.The classroom is set aside once a month as part of the Sunday Open House activities for anyone, no matter their age, to experience a lesson centred around the three R's. All lessons are led by an actor in full Victorian costume.
The room has been recreated in one of Dr Barnardo's original classrooms, restored as it was in the 1870s.
The classroom is equipped with authentic and well-used school desks, slate writing boards and chalks, blackboards and easels and even dunce hats.
