Join us on 28 May 2021 to celebrate the vital role of the arts in our schools and colleges around the country, and the fantastic work created by children and young people. 

The event will take place on Twitter using the hashtag #EduArtsFest – we want to fill the platform with the voices of children and young people playing music, performing drama, sharing artwork, poetry, singing, or dancing.  

After over a year of despair and disruption, let’s get back to the creativity and joy which forms such an important part of education. 
 

The Festival of School and College Arts is a joint initiative between ASCL and the Association of Colleges (AoC), Confederation of School Trusts (CST), the Independent Schools Council (ISC), National Association of Head Teachers (NAHT), the NASUWT teachers’ union, National Education Union (NEU), the National Governance Association (NGA), and the Sixth Form Colleges Association (SFCA). The festival is also being supported by the Cultural Learning Alliance which champions a right to arts and culture for every child.
