Education outreach
If you can’t come to the us, let us come to you! RZSS can send a qualified member of our discovery and learning team to your location. Alternatively, if you would like RZSS to provide presence at a booth for your festival, fair, or other event, please contact the team directly at community@rzss.org.uk.

Developing the young workforce
We are often approached to discuss the world of work with a variety of learners, and where possible we seek to support such events.
This is often at a school cluster level, such as careers fairs and cross stage learning events where we can talk about the variety of roles at the zoo and pathways into the world of work.
