The school and the community

Quality of life and support for cultural experiences

Creative industries and the economy

The arts, the community and the economy

This was not the main focus of QCA's arts curriculum development project. Further work is now taking place and findings will be added to this section of the website.

However, work so far has indicated that effective teaching and learning in the arts can:

• forge successful links between the school and the community;
• increase quality of life and support for cultural experiences;
• contribute to the development of the creative industries and the economy.
