To this end, the Creative Schools programme has been a hugely successful demonstration of what can be achieved by working together, supporting over 5000 children and young people to access creative and cultural experiences through their school.<em><br \/>\n<\/em><strong>Sean Gregory, Director of Learning and Engagement, Barbican\/Guildhall School of Music &amp; Drama<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<blockquote><p>Stratford Circus Arts Centre is proud to have led on the schools brokerage component of Creative Schools. Through its bespoke approach the programme has given thousands of children access to the rich cultural opportunities east London has to offer. Creative Schools has facilitated an enhanced understanding between education and cultural organisations, resulting in arts projects that have a deeper and longer lasting impact for schools and their pupils. Stratford Circus Arts Centre will continue in its mission to ensure that every child in east London has access to the highest quality arts education. With the East London Cultural Education Alliance we will build on the important work of Creative Schools and lead on its evolution and expansion.<br \/>\n<strong>Tania Wilmer, Director, Stratford Circus Arts Centre<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Creative Schools aims to create \u2018critical mass\u2019 around shared challenges and opportunities in east London, and over the course of the past three years of the programme brought together 280&#8230; <a class=\"moretag\" href=\"https:\/\/www.creativeschools.london\/our-story-of-change\/\">read more<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.9.1 -
