Nottingham Contemporary: Schools of Tomorrow

Nottingham Contemporary is working in collaboration with eight city schools as part of the Schools of Tomorrow project.  The project aims to explore how artists and teachers working together can inform and shape how we nurture and teach creativity in schools. The programme will support core skills for learning, specifically; speaking, collaboration, critical thinking and leadership and use creativity to build joy, confidences and pride in children and their communities. The aim is to shift creativity from the classroom into the whole school and beyond, not only engaging students and teachers, but also school leaders and whole school communities. Find out more.
