A New Direction and the Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation have published the 'Arts in Schools: Foundations for the Future' report, asking policymakers and schools to place greater value to the role of the arts as part of a rethink of England’s state education system.
The report assesses policy developments since ‘The Arts in Schools: Principles, Practice and Provision’, which was the last influential Gulbenkian report, released in 1982. This initial release helped secure the arts’ place in the National Curriculum and contributed to the addition of education teams in multiple cultural organisations.
The newest report features a range or research, including a series of roundtable discussions with the heads of schools and multi-academy trusts, teachers, academics, arts educators and young people.
