Primary Matters - ECM and Art & Design (PDF document)
Art, craft and design matter to all children … and it matters that all children have the opportunity to engage with visual culture. By engaging all children – as practitioners, critical audiences and consumers – art, craft and design can contribute to the aims of the ECM agenda. It helps children develop a critical awareness of the
transforming power of the arts, whether in a work context, within diverse communities or as a leisure interest they can pursue for the rest of their lives. In this first issue of Primary Subjects, we look first at enjoyment and chievement, then examine the positive contribution of design, and finally look at issues of safe practice and the process of transition.

Inquiry into Creative Partnerships and the Curriculum (PDF document)
The House of Commons Education & Skills Committee recently instigated an inquiry into Creative Partnerships and the Curriculum. However this was aborted with the dissolution of the DfES at the end of June 2007.
This submission was prepared by the National Society for Education in Art and Design (NSEAD). It is possible that the new DCSF Select Committee will resurrect this inquiry so a note of any comments, additions or omissions would be welcome.
Please e-mail John Steers at the NSEAD.
