Artsmark is the national programme that enables schools, further education colleges and youth justice settings to evaluate, celebrate and strengthen a quality arts offer.
You can download a full list of Artsmark awards on the Artsmark website.
A new focus of Artsmark is to support our 10-year goal of ensuring every child and young person has the opportunity to experience the richness of the arts by promoting formal education institutions to deliver rich and high quality provision. It will deliver this by providing:
- a structured and in depth online auditing tool
- rigorous criteria against which applicants can benchmark their provision
- the support of arts education professionals throughout the assessment process
- the creation of a network of organisations committed to high quality, broad and sustainable arts provision
Trinity College London, which also manages Arts Award, will become the national provider for Artsmark from September 2012. Using the same provider for Artsmark and Arts Award will result in a more joined-up approach to delivering cultural education for children and young people, both in and out of school.
