EDUCATION TO UNDERSTAND THE WORLD & CHANGE IT FOR THE BETTER

ARTSMARK

Picture
We are very proud to have been re-designated an Artsmark Platinum school (September 2022) in recognition of our focus on high quality arts provision for all students at Thomas Tallis School. 

The panel has made the following comment about our case study:​
We were impressed by your clear, strong commitment to the transformative power of the Arts, which is making a difference to teaching and learning across the school and to other professionals regionally, nationally and internationally. Creativity and arts are clearly front and centre in the school planning documents. SLT, Governor support, and specialist teachers drive an established range of provision, underpinned by a strong qualification offer, including delivery of Arts Award. It is heartening to hear about returning to an 'entitlement' model for KS3 – pupils having choice is brilliant, but they only know what they already have experience of. Arts teaching continued virtually throughout the pandemic, with showcasing within school and the local community. There are established, long lasting partnerships with arts organisations that are formally recognised through Associateships and Memorandum of Understanding. Pupils have choice over their learning and, through Tate Exchange, had opportunities to share their learning wider and take leading roles [...] A real strength seems to be in the sharing of your learning and practice through your feeder primaries and local secondary schools, as well as through higher profile publications and media. Your work on decolonising the curriculum and climate emergency are both really interesting strands, and we'd love to hear more about these on your next journey. Keep doing it, keep shouting about it, and keep measuring the impact.
As a Platinum Artsmark school, Arts Council England celebrates our commitment to arts and cultural education at a governing body level, the opportunities established across our provision and the leadership we are demonstrating in this area. Our children and young people are offered equal opportunity to influence, lead, experience and evaluate a diverse range of high-quality arts and cultural activities across a broad range of media and we are able to contribute to development opportunities in these areas for both our own staff and others. We have strong partnerships with arts and cultural organisations and can evidence the positive impact of this collaboration. Our children and young people have an opportunity to continually develop their knowledge, skills and understanding of arts and culture and we are working to further develop the leadership role we have established.

About Artsmark

We believe every child should have the opportunity to create, compose, and perform, as well as to visit, experience, participate in and review extraordinary work.

Artsmark can help unlock the potential of children and young people, help to develop character and talent, and increase their knowledge and understanding.

That’s why Artsmark was created: to bring this ambition to life in every classroom.

Awarded by Arts Council England, designed by schools, the new Artsmark award will help schools to deliver a high quality arts and cultural education and provides an excellent way to demonstrate this.

Across the country Artsmark is rewarding more and more schools for championing arts and culture.  Any school setting can apply.

​Artsmark schools gain access to exceptional resources as well as networks of the country’s most treasured cultural organisations, helping them develop and strengthen their arts provision.
