Our Arts Award Festival Investments Programme: Readipop Festival
|
| |
|
| |
|
"Each July, Readipop runs a three-day, family friendly arts festival in Reading on the banks of the River Thames. This year, a grant from Artswork gave us the opportunity to run an extensive Arts Award project with local primary schools in the run up to Readipop Festival and to incorporate Arts Award into our festival. We were able to offer ukulele, music technology and Samba workshops, Samba was especially popular with the young people because they were all really excited about the Rio Olympics. Young people really enjoyed the workshops and teachers were impressed with the way samba playing encouraged transferable skills like teamwork."

CASE STUDY | Primary School children find A Sense of Self in Kent
|
| |
|
| |
|
Art and Design in schools is in a challenging position, with far greater emphasis placed on achievements in English and Maths. The implications of this stretch across the curriculum, meaning that in the last five years, less and less time has been spent on Art and Design.
In Kent, the Sense of Self project was developed following the success of Shepway Teaching School Alliance’s A Sense of Place project (2014-15), which nurtured primary schools to develop their arts provision through connecting with art and artists in their locality.

Government "cash injection" allows Music Education Hubs to reach "even more pupils"
|
| |
|
| |
|
Practical music teaching in England (delivered by a network of 121 hubs) is secure for another four years, ministers have announced.
The hubs, first set up in 2012, allow children to play instruments, sing in choirs or play in bands, but continued funding has been uncertain. Now the government has announced £300m to last over the next four years.
The Musicians Union said the cash would be welcome relief to music teachers “struggling” in insecure jobs.
Composer Lord Lloyd-Webber said it was a “welcome first step towards improving funding for music and the arts” in schools.
