Delight Programmes

Delight programmes create magic in learning, offer equal access to arts-based education for all children, whatever their ability or background, and deliver strong Continuing Professional Development for teachers.

We develop our art, dance, drama and storytelling programmes with children, teachers, senior leaders and arts professionals. This is to ensure we offer excellent and relevant content that broadens horizons, develops personal wellbeing, and social and emotional resilience to improve engagement with learning.

“The programme had a huge impact on the children. It has helped their confidence and changed the way they read out loud to the class. It’s helped those children living under the radar to find a voice.”

School Selection

As our programmes are subsidised, school partners are asked to demonstrate that the Delight programme will be used to support our core mission of closing the opportunity and attainment gap for children affected by disadvantage or those with additional needs. School selection is based on identified needs.
