SPYSCAPE is an immersive spy museum experience for school groups in London and New York, ideal for Key Stage 3 and above. Students complete hands-on challenges in empathy, risk tolerance, observation, pattern recognition and decision-making, developed with top spy trainers and psychologists, and each student receives their own individual Q Type profile.

In London, SPYSCAPE supports STEM, PSHE, Citizenship and personal development, building critical thinking, communication, collaboration and resilience. In New York, the experience is aligned with STEM, covering themes including privacy, cybercrime, hacking, surveillance and cyber-warfare alongside history and psychology.

A Q Type is an individual profile based on multiple factors including empathy, risk tolerance, observation, pattern recognition, cognitive ability and decision-making style. The Q Type methodology was developed by Professor Adrian Furnham, a leading psychologist, and John Taylor, former Head of Training at British Intelligence (MI6). There are ten Q Types in total, each based on archetypes used by real intelligence agencies. Unlike traditional psychological profiles Q Types are based on both self-reported and observed results. Every student receives their own individual profile, making it a meaningful personal development takeaway from the visit.

A SPYSCAPE school trip typically takes around 90 minutes in New York and 60 minutes in London. Last entry is 90 minutes before closing in New York and 60 minutes before closing in London.

SPYSCAPE school trips are ideal for Key Stage 3 and above in London, and middle school and above in New York. The challenges and museum content are designed to engage teenagers and older students, supporting STEM, PSHE and Social-Emotional Learning (SEL) through hands-on missions and real espionage history.
