Close of Creative Partnerships
1 Oct 2011
Creative Partnerships was the UK's flagship creative learning programme, designed to develop the skills of children and young people across England, raising their aspirations and achievements, and opening up more opportunities for their futures. The programme ran throughout England from 2002 until 30 September 2011 when funding was withdrawn by Arts Council England.
Creative Partnerships was managed by Creativity, Culture and Education (CCE) and was delivered through a range of regional Area Delivery Organisations who worked with over 5,000 schools.
CCE was a winner of a 2011 WISE Award from the Qatar-based World Innovation Summit for Education (WISE) Foundation for the Creative Partnerships programme and continues to offer a range of services based upon the principles of and learning from Creative Partnerships. CCE now works on an increasingly international basis to provide advice and support to those countries aspiring to develop their own creative learning programmes.
