External Training

 

Artis is a creative learning charity with over 15 years’ experience of running professional development programmes for school staff, arts professionals and practitioners, as well as providing corporate training both in the UK and internationally.

Higher Education

For the past five years, we have been running a 30 credit Master’s level module at the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester. We work with students on the MMus programme to develop their leadership skills through practical placements in primary schools.

The course is structured as a combination of training days and a placement working alongside experienced mentors. Feedback from students and staff has been overwhelmingly positive, with students saying that the course has given them a large toolkit of skills, which have enhanced their professional practice and exposed them to the educational side of the performing arts.

Artis has also run one-off training sessions for Higher Education institutions and conferences on methods for teaching creatively in the classroom.

Teambuilding

The value placed on creativity and innovation in the workplace is and the skills that the performing arts offer become increasingly necessary across a range of sectors.

Artis has a strong track record of providing organisations with creative teambuilding and leadership workshops. Our Artis Specialists can provide sessions on:

  • Creative Thinking in the Workplace
  • Creative Leadership
  • Presentation Skills

Our programme benefits organisations who want to enhance the creativity of their workforce and recognise that positive impact could be gained from engaging with the arts.

Conferences and events

Artis can also deliver at TeachMeets, conferences and events. We also provide training courses for people who want to develop their skills and confidence in working as creative educators with children and young people, please see our Eventbrite for the latest events.

We have seen a monumental difference in the pupil’s engagement and participation with Artis sessions that are not seen in the classroom lessons.

The arts hold the power to reflect, to motivate and to bring us to our highest possible selves. Without the arts we are but two dimensions.

  Kwame Kwei-Armah, Artis Patron
 

Because of the arts, the learning experiences at Pakeman are much richer and the children are much happier.

  Emma Bonnin, Head, Pakeman Primary
 

I don’t think you can really invest in anything better than the arts because that’s about how we see each other and ourselves.

  Nitin Sawhney, Artis Patron
 

It has been great to see many of our children grow in confidence over the year.

  Emily Baggot, Teacher, Wheelers Lane Primary
 

Artis helps us to deliver our curriculum in a way that allows the children to be really engaged. And it is absolutely fantastic to watch them do that.

  Ciara Parris, Head, Links Primary
 

It has been so rewarding for our children to work with Artis. If you are reading this wondering whether you should make the decision to bring them into your school, do it. Our children love working with Beebop, it is great for their mental wellbeing and enriches our curriculum. Our staff love it too!
