The Artsmark Award is the only creative quality standard for schools and education settings, accredited by Arts Council England. The programme aligns with School Improvement Plans and supports core EBACC and STEM priorities. It’s open to primary, secondary and special schools, pupil referral units, youth offending teams and sixth form colleges.
Schools and education settings are supported by our regional bridge organisation, The Mighty Creatives. They will support you by running Artsmark Development Days, support sessions, giving you advice by phone, email or in person, sharing practical resources and introducing you to leading cultural organisations in your area, including our Artsmark Partners.
Find out more on the Mighty Creatives website.
Arts Award inspires young people to grow their arts and leadership talents: it's creative, valuable and accessible. It enables young people to deepen their engagement with the arts, build creative and leadership skills and achieve a national qualification.
The award can be undertaken in many settings such as arts centres, colleges and schools, community projects, libraries, galleries, local authorities, theatres, youth clubs and youth justice settings.
