With the marked increase in vocational courses on offer, Llancaiach recognises that many schools and colleges are looking for training targeted to specific topics or educational objectives.

We have, therefore, developed a range of specialist training suitable for students of all ages studying specific courses.

These include a tour of the Manor House focused on a particular topic or theme followed by a workshop with our Education Officer and supporting paperwork for each student to reinforce learning and suggestions for further development.
