Transform your
school with creativity
What is an Artsmark school?
When you join the Artsmark community, you become part of an ever-growing network of schools committed to arts, culture and creativity in education.
Collaboration plays a key role in Artsmark, including peer-to-peer learning. We encourage you to reach out to Artsmark schools in your area to learn first-hand how Artsmark can transform your school. Below you’ll find a list of all schools currently enrolled on an Artsmark journey - download and filter by region and postcode.
Registrations are currently paused but you’ll be able to apply for a new Artsmark Award in February 2027. Find out more. Be the first to get involved in the new Artsmark programme by registering your interest here.
Are you currently on an Artsmark journey? All schools will be emailed by the 11th September with tailored information about what this means for your current journey.
In addition, the Cultural Education Network is on hand if you need to talk to someone about your Artsmark journey and any questions about your cultural education offer. You just need to book a free one-to-one with one of their friendly Cultural Education Specialists.
