Royal Opera House Creative Partnerships
Managed by the Royal Opera House since October 2008, Creative Partnerships in the Thames Gateway is working with over 100 schools across the region to deliver innovative, long-term partnerships between schools and creative professionals. The Creative Partnerships programme helps schools look at different ways of growing creativity and delivering the curriculum through creative teaching and learning techniques, working across subject and year groups and encouraging parents to get involved.
It brings in people such as film makers, dancers, graphic designers and sculptors, writers, actors, gardeners, painters, poets and photographers to inspire and work with staff, governors, parents and children. Royal Opera House Creative Partnerships is now working with more than 100 artists in 110 schools across Essex and Hertfordshire, developing the skills of our future creative individuals. New and exciting opportunities for schools are being discovered as a result of the incorporation of the programme into the work of the Royal Opera House education department.
