Threat to Creativity in Schools and the Arts Industry
Nicola Benedetti lends her name to the campaign to keep the arts at the forefront of English education.
Leading figures in music, art and drama warn that the new English Baccalaureate, which does not include arts subjects, will devastate their teaching in schools and threaten Britain's thriving creative industries.
Supporters of the campaign include, among others, the composer and theatre director, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Nicola Benedetti, Elaine Paige, singer and actress and the chief executive of the Royal Opera House.
They fear that the new English Baccalaureate, which only includes "academic" subjects, will sideline lessons in music, art, drama, dance and design and technology, leaving children ignorant about the creative arts.
