It includes free admission and parking at most of the places in our care.

 We're pleased to extend this pass to home-educating groups so that home-educated children have access to the same discounted entry as traditional schools. To distinguish between this category and our standard family membership, home-educating groups using their Education Group Access Pass can visit in normal school hours during school term time only. A maximum of two parents/guardians may enter on one home educator’s EGAP. 

The access pass is over £100 a year cheaper than the traditional family membership.
