ENVi is the Victorian education network of AMaGA and we have been seeking ways to support educators in all Victorian museums and galleries through the difficulties of the COVID crisis and beyond. In 2020 we successfully ran an online program of meetings exploring issues and best practice. We now wish to provide our members with a snapshot of how institutions are adapting to conditions in Term 1.

This survey is for Victorian cultural institutions (Galleries, Museums, Libraries, Theatres, Gardens etc.) who have offered facilitated onsite programming for school groups. Please respond with your COVID management planning for school groups visiting your venue so we understand what measures are being put in place across the sector. The results of this survey will be collated and made available on our website for all museum educators. You will be able to benchmark your responses to similar institutions across the state.
