Artsmark Partnership Programme
Artsmark is the only creative quality standard for schools, accredited by Arts Council England. Using a flexible framework, it builds young people’s confidence and celebrates commitment to cultural education.
As an Artsmark partner, Bow Arts has been recognised for its understanding of the Artsmark criteria and potential to support schools on their Artsmark journey.
Our broad range of offers, from staff CPD opportunities to student workshops, can be tailored to your school, helping you to develop the areas you need to.
Cultural education gives children and young people the opportunity to develop their creativity, both individually and collectively, and that’s why our goal is for every child and young person to have the opportunity to experience the richness of the arts.
