Culture Council
Mountford Manor Primary
Awarded from CEP: £2,500
School funding: £5,000 from Pupil Premium, School Fundraising Committee, and CPD budget
Mountford Manor is based in Swindon, and will be working to develop a pupil-led ‘culture council’ to bring new and diverse cultural activities into school for Nursery to Yr6. A range of partners are on board, including Prime Theatre, Swindon Dance, Artsite, Swindon Museum & Art Gallery, and STEAM. Activities will involve artist visits, cultural trips, after-school clubs, new art for the school, and staff CPD. The project aims to build pupil’s sense of cultural entitlement, confidence and wellbeing.
