Creative Schools
We are very fortunate to be accepted into the Creative Schools programme which is run by the Arts Council. This will involve a Creative Associate working with our school to help us develop and celebrate the arts and creativity in our school. With the associate, we will be able to establish collaborative opportunities with our community and strengthen the relationships we have built with the wider cultural and arts infrastructures in the north west. The ultimate aim of the programme is to encourage our students to fully embrace the arts and creativity to ensure a positive experience and strong outcomes for our students.
