Peter Hamlyn Foundation: Arts-based Learning Fund
Funding arts and cultural organisations to work in partnership with schools and make arts-based learning a core part of education.
We believe that arts-based teaching and learning can add value and help schools achieve their aspirations for pupils. This fund achieves this by:
- supporting arts organisations to work in partnership with formal education settings leading to a mutual exchange and enrichment of expertise;
- focusing on pupils who experience systemic inequity and enabling them to make progress and overcome barriers to learning;
- exploring the role of arts-based learning in addressing issues of inclusion, especially racism, in education;
- creating more opportunities for high quality arts-based teaching and learning in education settings, especially in those which have not had this work in the past;
- enabling arts-based learning to be embedded in curricula and practice for the long-term; and
- building a body of evidence and practice, and understanding how the work improves equity for pupils.
