Artsmark award

Watch this page for updates as we go on our Artsmark journey.

In 2024 we applied for the Artsmark award. This is awarded to schools which show particular skill in developing children’s love of the arts through high quality teaching and experiences that are broader than the National Curriculum.

We have partnered with The Mercury Theatre this year to ensure we offer a wide variety of arts and cultural experiences to all children.

 

Below are galleries of the different events we have held since beginning our Artsmark journey. We hope you enjoy them!
