Testimonial

“I thought the training was really empowering and I left excited to compile the information needed to complete our Statement of Impact to show what we have achieved as a school.”

A teal circle says Schools says 9/10 schools say Artsmark’s CPD boosts staff skills and confidence. Next to that is a photo of two pupils looking really happy as they splash their hands in white paint.

Module 3 - Artsmark Development Training  - Impact of Change

Is your Artsmark journey well underway? You’ve spent the last year or so bringing incredible opportunities to children and young people through your arts provision. Now’s the time to register for Goldsmiths’ Impact of Change module. This training is designed for you to take about 12 - 22 months after you submitted your Statement of Commitment. This is the core support for helping you to write your Statement of Impact. The member of staff leading on this should attend.   

In this session, you’ll learn how to critically examine and analyse evidence and data collected during your Artsmark journey. You will look at how these findings can be used to evaluate and assess the impact that arts, culture and creativity has had in your learning community, supporting you to complete your Statement of Impact. 

Additional learning and development opportunities

To complement the core Artsmark Development training modules, Goldsmiths will be offering a range of additional learning opportunities to support teachers to expand their subject knowledge and develop and enhance their approach to whole school change.

Artsmark Support Drop-In Sessions

Artsmark support drop-in sessions are open to all schools on their Artsmark journey.

Whether new to Artsmark, on a repeat journey, working towards submitting a Statement of Commitment or Statement of Impact, or anywhere in-between, the team from Goldsmiths will be available to support you work through any specific challenges or issues you may be facing, and to facilitate peer mentoring with other schools and settings in the session.

These are open, group sessions with the option of using breakout rooms for peer support. You don’t need to register in advance, just click the link to join at any point within the two hour slot.
