The tour can also be tailored to introduce younger pupils to these themes.  

This walking tour will allow students to trace the development of the Spitalfields area as Huguenot, Irish, Jewish, Bangladeshi and Somali communities have, at different times, made this area their home. Groups will be able to see the Sandy Row Synagogue, the Jewish Soup Kitchen and a short distance away, the Cable Street Mural. 
Students will also use residential, recreational, industrial and religious buildings in the area to help them build their knowledge of life for migrants in the area. 

The famous Brick Lane, lined with long established curry houses and bagel bakeries, provide the opportunity for food tastings and relaxation as the tour reaches its conclusion.  

The Migration Museum explores how the movement of people to and from Britain across the ages has made us who we are today, both as individuals and as a nation. Migration is a pressing contemporary issue and is at the centre of polarised political and online debate. But there’s an underlying story of comings and goings stretching back many centuries. And this story goes to the heart of who we are today. Britain has thousands of museums, but none comprehensively focused on this important theme that connects us all.

The Migration Museum also offers educational workshops and tours of their exhibitions in their current home in the heart of Lewisham Shopping Centre.
