UK Parliament provides free education services and resources for schools, colleges, communities, youth groups and home educators. They provide face-to-face, online, and outreach sessions for different age ranges and abilities. You can find more information and their free resources here.
UK Parliament Week is an annual event, spreading the word about what Parliament is, what it does and how you can get involved. Last year’s Parliament Week took place from 24th-30th November 2025.
Anyone can get involved. When you sign up, UK Parliament will send you a free kit packed with resources. You can tailor what you receive depending on the age groups you are working with.
There are lots of different ways to celebrate UK Parliament Week, such as:
- organising or taking part in a debate or a quiz
- discussing issues and holding votes
- creating petitions
- themed assemblies and school council elections
- baking, crafting and colouring
- meeting your MP, a member of the Lords, local councillors, or mayors – either in person or virtually.
When you sign up, UK Parliament will ask if they can let Lilian know, as your MP, that you’re taking part. If you would like to, please get in touch with Lilian to invite her to your activity. Alternatively, you could invite a Member of the Lords, a local Nottingham City councillor or elected mayor.
UK Parliament has its own Teacher Network. Their teacher training team provides training, resources and support for teachers to help them engage their students in learning about UK Parliament and democracy. Tours and workshops for the new generation of teachers are delivered at Parliament and in universities and other teacher training centres across the UK.
