ARTS IN SCHOOLS MASTERCLASS
Wednesday 9th of July 2014
5-7pm
An active, participatory session that will give teachers the tools to assess, frame and deliver a stronger case for the arts in their schools. Peer learning and professional tips, combined with practical exercises that participants can conduct with their own school communities, will help reinforce the case that the arts are an essential part of the school experience, now more than ever.
Participants will:
• Explore the impact of cultural learning on attainment, engagement, behaviour, inclusion and other essential aspects of their school
• Gain valuable tips, ideas, exercises and resources for building and communicating a strong arts offer in the current educational climate
• Learn from professionals and each other about best practice, key studies/ research, and essential ideas in arts advocacy
Led by Greg Klerkx, an arts educator and facilitator working with teachers and artists in to build stronger, more meaningful connections between the learning and culture sectors. He is a lead trainer with A New Direction and Creativity, Culture & Education and is co-director of the award-winning cultural producing company, Nimble Fish.
