ARTS EDUCATION NEEDS TO CHANGE

BY BRINGING OUR CREATIVE INDUSTRIES INTO SCHOOLS

We recently debated the motion, ‘creativity should be mandatory’ in schools at Parliament with the IPA, and received a resounding majority in support. Now we need to turn that momentum into meaningful action by embedding creativity across the curriculum and strengthening access into arts education pathways.

CREATE - A GUIDE TO THE CREATIVE INDUSTRIES. DESIGNED SPECIFICALLY FOR SCHOOLS TO INTRODUCE KIDS TO CREATIVE CAREERS

'CREATE!' IS DESIGNED BY RUDE AND PUBLISHED BY HACHETTE. 50 MENTORS (ACROSS 16 DISCIPLINES) EXPLAIN HOW AND WHY THEY DO WHAT THEY DO.

SEND BOOKS TO SCHOOLS OR SPONSOR YOUR BOROUGH

Our aim is to get copies of Create into as many schools as possible, helping inspire the next generation to explore creativity and creative careers.

Thanks to our friends at Time Based Arts, the first packages have already been delivered to schools across the London borough of Tower Hamlets.

If you would like to sponsor books for schools in your borough, organisation, or community, we’d love to hear from you.
