Cultural Education Partnerships
The Story
"The idea for Local Cultural Education Partnerships was developed in partnership with the Department for Education (DfE) in 2015, with the aim of improving the alignment of cultural education of young people. Pilot LCEPs were launched in Great Yarmouth, Bristol, and Barking & Dagenham. Since then, the success of these partnerships has inspired the emergence of 140 LCEPs across England."
