As part of our charitable commitment to education we are delighted to offer our education classes at a very special reduced rate. This price gives you admission to the Zoo for the day as well as the booked education class.
At Edinburgh Zoo
Edinburgh Schools* | £6 per pupil |
All Other Schools | £7 per pupil |
Colleges and Universities | £8 per student |
At Highland Wildlife Park
Schools | £6 per pupil |
Colleges and Universities | £8 per student |
All the above are subject to a minimum payment.
*Reductions have been made possible with small levels of grant support from Edinburgh Council.
We provide free admission for supervisory adults as follows:
Nursery | 1 adult per 4 children |
Primary | 1 adult per 7 children |
Secondary | 1 adult per 10 children |
Special Schools | 1 adult per pupil if required |
Other Ages | 1 adult per 10 students |

*RZSS adult members are admitted free on production of a valid membership card.
Due to limited space, the number of adults attending the classes in the Education Centre must be restricted to the ratios given above. Of course, you can bring as many adults as you wish for supervision in the Zoo or Park. Children who are RZSS members are still required to pay the education charge. All children under 16 must be supervised at all times when in the Zoo or Park.
Payment
Groups will be invoiced after their visit for the number of adults and children that attended the education session.
Minimum charges and Cancellation
There is a £40 minimum charge for all Education sessions (£25 for groups where all students have additional support needs)
Please note a cancellation fee of £40 (£25 for ASN groups) is charged if cancellation is made 14 days or less before the visit unless a rebooking is made at the same time, the new booking must be within 3 school months of the original booking date.
