The Cultural Learning Alliance is a collective voice working to ensure that all children and young people have meaningful access to culture
This month we bring you news of new funding for Creative People and Places; the RSA Strong Arts, Strong Schools event and call for Evidence Champions; Nick Gibb, Minister for School Standards at the Education Select Committee; the first results of the OECD Education 2030 research; and the Arts Council England Corporate Plan.
In a programme which serves families from a very wide range of backgrounds, including Looked After Children and their carers, we see time and again that cultural learning nurtures confidence, creativity and skill. Through being audience members, participants or creators of music, families learn and develop together.
Abigail Pogson Managing Director, Sage Gateshead
