Is your school ready for change?

If you are already engaged in creative innovation in your school, e.g. through the Creative Partnerships Enquiry programme, we are now able to offer the opportunity to schools that are ready to deepen and strategically transform their approach and operations to achieve their aim. As part of our Change School programme, schools will receive funding of approximately £15,000 and professional ongoing support during this one year partnership. (Schools must match fund 25% of the total budget, i.e. up to £5,000).

The application deadline for the Change School programme 2010-2011 is 25th February 2010.

Or...Is your school ready to try a new creative approach?

We are now recruiting schools in our region who want to try out new creative approaches to teaching and learning, and are prepared to work with creative professionals to make this happen.

We are looking for schools to join our Enquiry School programme. This is a one year creative learning programme, typically targeted at a specific group of pupils and teachers. Schools receive up to £3,000 of funding and support from a creative professional to explore and develop a new creative approach to teaching and learning in a way that will benefit their school. (Schools must match fund 25% of the total budget, i.e. £1,000).

The application deadline for the Enquiry School programme 2010-2011 is Friday 11th June 2010.
