41% of state schools now have no GCSE drama at all.
Creativity has collapsed in eduction over the last decade, despite the last remaining teachers striving to keep arts accessible to all kids, not just lucky kids.
This #WorldTheatreDay let’s keep the pressure on to fulfil the government’s pledge to restore arts to the core curriculum
“Drama can’t fix everything, but it can help.”
This #WorldTheatreDay, listen to @mrJamesGraham discuss the importance of arts education whatsonstage.com/news/james-…
