Supporting all children and young people in London to shape culture and be creative.

My Creative School is a joint initiative between A New Direction and The Education Commission, now in its second year.

The Artsmark Partnership Programme is an Arts Council endorsed network of organisations who are devoted to bringing great arts and cultural opportunities to children and young people.

Welcome to the Powerful Partnerships Resource Library: a collection of case studies, tools and research to help you achieve powerful outcomes for young people through partnership working.

Browse our bank of research and resources - including classroom resources, teacher toolkits, films, research and case studies - all are available to view and download for free.

We support London schools to deliver and embed high-quality arts and cultural provision across their curriculum and whole school community.

We work with the cultural sector in London to ensure that all children and young people get the most out of London’s extraordinary creative and cultural offer.

Connected London is our response to the nationally driven, Cultural Education Challenge. It is our programme of support for local Cultural Education Partnerships, our own Connected Network, and a number of initiatives funded through our own 'London Cultural Education Challenge'.

We think that it is the right of all young Londoners -regardless of wealth, geography or luck, to be able to access and influence culture, and that the right platforms should be in place to identify and nourish young people’s creative talents.

We are always looking for creative organisations and businesses interested in providing real opportunities for talented young Londoners.
