The Learning section of the NRS website<\/a><\/strong> promotes the use and understanding of archives by teachers, pupils and learners of all ages and stages of learning. Below are resources particularly suited for schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Our Services for Schools<\/a> <\/strong>are designed to support Curriculum for Excellence and National Qualifications in the form of workshops and online resources for Scottish primary and secondary schools.<\/p>\n\n\n\n We are a partner in the Scottish Archive Network<\/strong><\/a> (SCAN) and have contributed to their website which contains an education micro-site that offers four modules designed to support learning and teaching of Scottish social, economic and political history:<\/p>\n\n\n\n Editor note – In January 2025 this website, The Scottish Archive Network, was decommissioned, but can still be accessed. The SCAN website has a complete web archive and all the content, apart from access to the Highlands and Islands Emigration records, are available via National Records of Scotland Web archive.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n The Highland and Island Emigration records database (HD4\/5) <\/a>is already available to search for free on the Scotland’s People website<\/a>. Researchers just need to register for a free account in order to search it. There is also a supporting record guide for researchers which provides background information and explains how to search the database at the Scotland’s People help and support guides<\/a>.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n If you have any questions, contact the Outreach and Learning team here.<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n Featured image:<\/strong> Photograph of mobile cinema used in ‘Lend to defend’ war bonds savings campaign, visiting children at a Scottish school, 1939-1945.
