Creativity in Education

The power of teaching creative subjects in schools

Creative subjects are not an optional extra. They are fundamental to developing well-rounded, capable and confident young people. Teaching music, drama and the visual arts nurtures imagination, critical thinking and emotional intelligence, while also strengthening communication, collaboration and problem-solving skills. These disciplines open pathways into one of the UK’s most dynamic economic sectors and ensure that students from all backgrounds have the opportunity to express themselves and realise their potential. A strong commitment to arts education is therefore essential, not only for individual growth, but for a vibrant, innovative and culturally rich society.

Join our panel as they explore how music, drama and the arts support student development, alongside the significant contribution of the entertainment industry to the UK economy.

We are delighted to be joined by Dame Caroline Dineage, Member of Parliament for Gosport and Chair of the Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee; and Sioban O’Connor, theatre director, former Director of Drama and founder of a youth theatre group.
