Self-Guided Visits

Self-Guided Visits for UK Schools

Explore St Paul’s Cathedral

St Paul’s welcomes thousands of students and their teachers through its doors every year as self-guiding visitors. Our aim is to ensure that every single young learner has an unforgettable experience in the Cathedral and is able to get the very most out of their visit. To fully support these visits, and all those preparing for them, we have developed a wide range of online resources, including downloadable trails, and booklets for self-guiding schools, which you will find by clicking on the buttons below. Schools from outside of the UK are welcome to visit St Paul’s Cathedral but will need to book via the Admissions Department. Please click here for further details. Bursary All schools from the area of the Diocese of London, visiting after the 1st October 2022, who have a Pupil Premium percentage of 35% and over in their school, may be able to reduce the cost of visiting by 50%. This includes all visit types (virtual, self-guided and guided visits) and includes the entrance to the Dome Galleries. Please get in touch if you think you will qualify for our bursary. Pupil Premium percentage must be evidenced via an official document or a letter/email from the Head Teacher. This bursary has a limited availability and will be provided on a first come first served basis.

A Spectacular View

For a small extra charge you can book a climb up to the galleries that line our famous dome. Rain or shine you are guaranteed an unforgettable opportunity to see London from what was once this city’s tallest building.

Adults Go free

Accompanying adults can visit free (up to a maximum of 6 with a group of 30 students). Staff providing 1-2-1 support for SEND students are also free. Extra adults will incur a charge.
