A mini research paper I wrote on how Community-Based Art can help Special Needs students "“Arts learning enables students to make mental connections between concepts and hands-on, concrete applications and to generate knowledge through being actively engaged in learning. Any hands-on or active arts learning encourages conscientization, the discovery of one’s potential.” ((Ho, 2010, 68)" https://lnkd.in/gn97cwHm

In the current educational landscape, art is often sidelined, perceived more as a luxury than a necessity, shadowed by the emphasis on traditional academics. We aim to transform education by addressing this critical gap: the undervaluation of art in learning environments. Traditionally seen as secondary to academics, art is essential for emotional development and self-expression. Our initiative challenges this perception, integrating art into academic learning to empower educators and students alike. Stay tuned for more on Aesthetic Literacy. #AestheticLiteracy #ArtInLearning #EmpowerThroughArt #Art #EmotionalWellbeing #EmpowermentThroughArt

Runnymede Trust & Freelands Foundation report: Visualise – Race & inclusion in secondary school art education The Runnymede Trust and Freelands Foundation have partnered to deliver 'Visualise', the first major research into race and ethnicity in UK art education. They say they want to make sure that art education is accessible and fulfilling for all students, and that teachers are supported to deliver a broad and engaging curriculum. One of the key findings of the report is that only 2.3% of all named stand-alone artists referenced in GCSE art and design exam papers are from Black or South Asian backgrounds It’s a big report but an easy read in a very attractive and arresting format covering: The Broad Canvass -no pun!

That’s the power of art! 🖌️ Art in schools isn’t just another subject; it’s a lifeline for creativity and self-expression. Whether it’s through painting, drawing, or any form of creative work, students can release stress, explore their emotions, and develop empathy in ways that words can’t always capture. 🎨✨ By prioritizing art in education, we’re not just teaching a skill—we’re shaping a generation of creative, thoughtful, and emotionally intelligent individuals. Let’s give every student the opportunity to explore their full potential through the arts! 💡 Be a part of us and let's work towards giving children a better future.

"Art education in the UK is at crisis point. Although teachers are doing the best they can to nurture diverse art practices within their classrooms, their best efforts are rooted in an education system that cannot support either students’ or teachers’ efforts to improve their experiences of art education." - Source: "Visualise: Race & Inclusion in Secondary School Art Education" (Begum et. al., 2024) - the first major research into issues of race and diversity within UK art education, published by the Runnymede Trust and Freelands Foundation. Some of the headlines: ➡️ Just 2.3% of named stand alone artists referenced in GCSE Art exam papers are from Black (1.54%) or South Asian (0.74%) backgrounds. ➡️ Nearly two thirds (66%) of secondary school students want to study artists from a wider range of ethnic backgrounds, rising to 80% among Black students. ➡️ Fewer than 4 in 10 teachers surveyed felt sure of the correct language to use when teaching the work of artists from global majority communities, with 82% asking for additional standardised content on race and diversity. ➡️ 90% of teachers surveyed said that supplementary educational resources dedicated to the work of artists from the global majority world would aid their teaching. In addition to the statistical findings, important recommendations for exam boards, publishers of educational resources, policy makers, museums, galleries, and the wider arts and heritage sectors are also detailed in the report's narrative. To read the full report - "Visualise: Race & Inclusion in Secondary School Art Education" - please follow this link to the Runnymede Trust website: https://lnkd.in/ewNc9Dh3 P.S. On a personal note, this reaffirms why it is important for me to continue teaching, writing, publishing and sharing my research and creative learning outputs on African, Caribbean and diaspora art histories.
