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

Anthony Wilkinson, Behaviour Support Worker, Parklands Primary

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.

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.

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!
