Inspiring Learning through the Arts

Our prime purpose is to secure high quality learning in and
through the arts for young people of all ages.

Engagement in the arts and creative opportunities transform the way children and young people learn and explore the world around them.

It can change the way children and young people see themselves - even what they dream of for the future - as well as helping them develop specific skills.

Ref: Children Young People and the Arts - Arts Council England 2005

Creative and cultural education can help raise educational standards by boosting a child’s self-confidence and self-esteem.

Our cultural heritage together with creativity through self-expression, offers a way of developing the talent of the individual and their understanding of a diverse and complex world around them.

Ref: All Our Futures Creativity Culture and Education - DFEE 2001

A full and balanced arts education in schools is essential because:

  • The processes of making in the arts provide all young people with fundamental ways of formulating and communicating their own ideas and feelings about the world in which they live;
  • Understanding existing work in the arts in all forms, gives young people vivid access to the ideas, values and beliefs of other people and to some of the most penetrating achievements of human culture;
  • Through involvement in the arts, young people can respond positively to the social world and contribute uniquely to the interplay of ideas and values which help shape it.

Ref: The Arts 5-16 NCC - 1990
