Participants will look at the four capacities of the Curriculum for Excellence and how participating in the arts enables young people to become Successful Learners, Confident Individuals, Effective Contributors and Responsible Citizens. The programme will also look at the outcomes and experiences for the Expressive Arts, as well as how the arts can be used across the curriculum to meet the health and wellbeing, literacy and numeracy outcomes. There will also be a chance to examine case studies of education projects, share ideas for future projects and tips on how to fund work in schools. Led by Fiona Dalgetty
