The Arts Pledge
Connecting people, practice, and purpose
The Arts Pledge exists to help ensure every child and young person can access meaningful, high-quality arts and cultural experiences.
Our Mission
Arts and cultural learning are a right and not a privilege. Our vision and mission are to work with schools, communities, and cultural partners to embed a creative, sustainable, high-quality arts education that:
Inspires learning
Strengthen identity and wellbeing
Expands opportunity for all young people
Our purpose is to secure every child’s right to meaningful arts and cultural experiences.
What is an Arts Pledge?
An Arts Pledge is a collective promise to ensure every child and young person has access to meaningful, high-quality arts and cultural experiences.
Its purpose is to ensure arts and cultural learning is meaningful, inclusive, and sustainable. Schools identify their strengths, needs, and aspirations. They set ambitious but achievable goals that align with existing priorities
Our Commitment
Each pledge strengthens the wider network. Schools and partners share expertise, build confidence, and expand opportunity across arts and education.
Long term change
We drive long-term positive change through collaboration, research, and professional support.
Networked nationally
Shaped by local communities and strengthened through national collaboration.
Built for lasting change
Focused on sustainable, long-term impact that continues beyond individual projects.
Evidence-informed practice
We are guided by research and grounded in proven real-world experience.
The Benefits
Arts and cultural education nurtures imagination, strengthens community identity, enhances wellbeing, and expands future opportunities. When schools and communities work together to close enrichment and entitlement gaps, the impact is transformative.
