Partners and development The museum has established a teaching centre with the support of the Municipality, School Service Zealand and development grants from the Heritage Agency. “cultural driver’s licence – history at all times The idea behind the project is to further the qualifications of the personnel at day-care centres and schools and thus increase children and young people’s knowledge of and insight into culture, nature and the environment. The cultural driver’s licence bridges the gap (...) between the museums’ core services and the schools’ curricula and year objectives for the subjects of history, Danish, RE, nature/ technology and visual arts. With this model, we will partly comply with the obligations stipulated in the Culture Agreement, implement elements in local cultural policies, and in the long term establish a permanent and future-proof model for mutually binding and beneficial collaboration between local culture, nature and arts resources and ‘children’s places’. It is essential that the School Service offer can form a direct part of teachers and educators’ daily work and the way in which teaching is planned.” allan velstrøm, school consultant, sorø municipality
