Support for Culture & the Arts in Suffolk!
ConnectED Teaching School Alliance is delighted to have gained CALSA Lead School status.
This means that we work with Festival Bridge http://www.nnfestival.org.uk/festival-bridge supporting schools and academies to strengthen and sustain Culture and Arts Provision. The development and embedding of a rich Culture and Arts provision has been shown to have a powerful impact on outcomes for students over the short and longer term.
ConnectED TSA has a number of Culture and Arts Leaders who can be deployed to support Culture and Arts projects in your school – no matter how big or small, and for all phases.
To find out more about the types of ways in which we can support your school, see the information leaflet below. For additional information or to make an enquiry, please contact admin@connectedtsa.org
