Educator CPD: Developing a relevant, inclusive and diverse primary art curriculum with Jasmin Bhanji
Thursday 15th October 2026 , 5:30pm to 7:30pm
Join artist Jasmin Bhanji to hear about a two-year project curriculum development project we’ve worked on with five primary schools. Jasmin will share her findings alongside teachers who participated with the aim of making their school’s art curriculum relevant and reflective of their student body – including a case study presented by Caroline Gardiner from Coldfall Primary School.
Learn tips and best practice in how to plan a rich, diverse curriculum which is sustainable and adaptable to the needs of your teachers and children.
We will also be launching our new curriculum design resource as an outcome of the project and there will be an opportunity to visit the current Nunnery Gallery exhibition. Find out more about Bhajan Hunjan: speaking through materials
