The public use of this material is made possible through exhibitions, heritage vehicle outings and other collections-based activities. Future plans LTM aims to maintain user numbers by mounting a major exhibition every year, develop our online content, increase young people’s engagement with engineering and remain a venue for thinking about London’s future. 06 Introduction 07 Education and engagement 08 Education and engagement 09 Education and engagement LTM Learning department offers a range of educational opportunities inside the Museum and throughout the community. Our on-site schools programme hosted 24,000 pupils in 2008/09. The programme addresses the needs of students and teachers by creatively linking the Museum’s collections to diverse topics including art, history, design, technology and engineering. The Safety & Citizenship programme engages primary and secondary school pupils through interactive sessions. These build the practical skills required to use London’s public transport system, including how to avoid dangers, dealing with emergencies and getting help. Our audience development team delivers a vibrant and diverse programme for groups that face barriers to museum engagement. Outreach activities such as reminiscence sessions with older people and storytelling for children at community centres across London attracted nearly 3000 participants. Six interactive projects with community groups produced an in-depth series of exhibitions and videos. LTM library supported 600 visitors conducting independent research on public transport issues. Whether they were authors, family historians or visitors inspired to dig a bit deeper, the library service assisted them in gaining the most relevant access to our large store of primary and secondary sources of transport information. A significant new approach to schools began in 2008. It was inspired by TfL’s Skills and Employment Strategy, which identified a shortfall of engineers in the UK. In response, LTM developed a set of inspirational hands-on activities for young people. Over 500 students took part in a trial programme which allowed them to meet engineers from TfL, explore career paths and educational options, and participate in a unique engineering challenge called ‘Eggsperiment’. Ninety-five percent of the participants stated that the event increased their understanding of engineering and we are actively seeking to find partners to expand this area of engagement in the future. 10 Education and engagement 11 This year the Museum joined forces with leading law firm Eversheds to launch a new Thought leadership programme for industry professionals. This annual series of thought-provoking and challenging events enables industry colleagues to come together and debate issues affecting their business. It was launched in March 2009 with Mind the skills gap chaired by TfL Commissioner Peter Hendy. Subsequent sessions included Technology and changing travel behaviours chaired by Steven Norris and De-carbonisation and you chaired by David Quarmby. Future sessions in 2009 will cover Funding transport, High-speed rail and Intercity travel. 12 Education and engagement 13 Encouraging safety and citizenship Mind the Skills Gap Chris Nix, LTM Hillary Alexander, Arup One of LTM’s most far-reaching The team engages the children in a variety Why is it that 50% of engineering Industry experts at Mind the Skills Gap of ways.

  • Family History Research at London Transport Museum
    Family history research at London Transport Museum Introduction This factsheet is for family historians researching ancestors who have connections with public transport in London. Many thousands of people have been employed across the different modes of transport over the years, but unfortunately relatively few records survive because there is no business or statutory requirement to keep them beyond a few years. The guide to sources below is designed to help you identify surviving records that may be related to your research. It tells you where they are located and how you can access them. Questions at the end of this factsheet may also help you get started on your family history journey. Museum Library London Transport Museum Library, Albany House, 98 Petty France, London SW1H 9EA You may want to visit the Library as part of your research. Information about our collection and how to contact us or arrange a visit is on our Library page on the Museum website. Where to start To find relevant staff records, you first need to identify which company your ancestor might have worked for and the years when they may have been employed there. The London Passenger Transport Board (also known as London Transport) was formed in 1933. Before then, public transport in London was run by many different companies operating the buses, trams and underground railway lines. You might know your ancestor’s job from a certificate or photograph. If you know where they lived in London, you could use that as a starting point to identify their employer. Be aware though that in the past people often walked long distances to go to work.
