In this inspiring blog, one teacher talks us through not only their Artsmark journey to Gold, but the impact its had on her own professional development.

Bedford High in Leigh, north west England, have used Artsmark to transform their own practice within the school and influencing the work of other settings throughout their seven-year Artsmark journey.

Our CEO, Darren Henley has an inspiring message for Artsmark schools as we settle into the new academic year.

As we begin delivering our new ten-year strategy, Let’s Create, our Children and Young People team are working hard to ensure that all youth engagement projects play a key role in helping us achieve our vision.

It’s been a year like no other for schools, with many different challenges to overcome. This didn’t stop Christ Church embarking on their Artsmark journey though! We speak to their arts lead, Nicola Bingham, about how the Artsmark framework is supporting them.

Last week we attended the Association of School and College Leaders (ASCL) annual conference and came away feeling informed, inspired and excited.

As we launch the first Artsmark Celebration Week, Arts Council England's Chief Executive, Darren Henley, blogs about the important role arts and culture has on a young person's development, and has a special message of thanks for our Artsmark schools.

Our Chief Executive Darren Henley tells us why schools, education settings and cultural organisations across the country are taking time to appreciate the benefits of cultural education this week.
