‘The team at Chiltern Open Air Museum (COAM) are valuable allies in the education of children. The skills and expertise of the staff are second to none, with the learning of the children at the root of what they offer. It is a pleasure to be working alongside such a skillful and organised team which aims to challenge and motivate children outside the classroom.’
