Arts

ISA Arts provides a space for the creativity of our member schools to flourish through a year-round programme of events in the visual and performing arts. 

Independent schools have long celebrated the value of the arts and ISA Arts are committed to continuing this with a growing programme of both in-person and virtual events, widening the access to extra-curricular opportunities that have now become a highlight in the calendars for many of our schools. 

We deliver events, competitions and challenges which give pupils the chance to express themselves, achieve awards, gain feedback from experts, attend and perform at live events and learn from the work of their peers. 

Inclusion is at the heart of ISA, there are opportunities for pupils from EYFS to Sixth Form.
These opportunities encourage young people to express their individuality and showcase their artistic talents, as well as build their confidence. 

Take a look at the calendar below to see all the competitions and events coming up over the next academic year:
