Arts and cultural education in the Netherlands
Based on a six month study of arts and cultural education in The Netherlands, the report 'Netwerken en verbindingen: Arts and cultural education in the Netherlands' assesses the current state of these two subjects in the country. It identifies the shortcomings and the strengths of the current provisions and their implementation and proposes how best-practice models can be transferred from the pre-eminent performers and educators to those at the other end of the performance scale.
Undertaken by Professor Anne Bamford, the research indicates that currently the Inspection Services give little or no attention to arts and cultural education. There is a lack of expertise in this field within the Inspection Service. This means that the capacity to make informed judgements about the quality of arts and cultural education is limited. This is perceived to be a powerful de-motivating factor in schools giving financial, time and human resources to the arts.
