Advice for Schools
We are the area delivery organisation for Creative Partnerships in Lancashire, Merseyside, West Cheshire, Blackburn with Darwen, Blackpool and Halton. We also contribute and deliver a number of other programmes which focus on improving the lives of children and young people through participation of cultural activities, by putting learner voice at the core of the process and by providing opportunities for the growth of decision making and leadership skills.
We currently work in over 170 schools, connecting teachers with creative practitioners from a broad range of disciplines to develop innovative long-term programmes of creative teaching and learning which are proven to raise attainment, improve attendance and engagement, increase parental involvement and motivate school staff.
