Arts and Culture Schools
Arts and Culture School
All schools in the borough are invited to become an Arts and Culture School, demonstrating their commitment to the arts for their young people and gaining access to regular updates on resources and activities taking place.
Schools will receive:
A digital badge which you can add to your website and print off and display in your school entrance
A regular ‘Arts and Culture School’ e-newsletter to keep in touch with Croydon’s cultural sector
Enrichment experiences provided by Croydon’s cultural sector for your learners might include:
Visiting Museum of Croydon, Croydon Archives or Libraries
Making use of cultural learning resources provided by Culture Croydon partners including Music Heritage Trail (Key Stages 2/3) and CMA (Early Years, Key Stages 1/2)
Signposting opportunities for young musicians, artists and producers with Croydon’s cultural sector
Arts and Culture School Development Journey
To support your school development journey, CMA will provide endorsements to your Arts and Culture School membership. We shall celebrate your journey in the Arts and Culture Schools newsletter and will ask you if we can feature evidence you provide to support other schools on their journey.
