Towers School and Sixth Form Centre

Towers School is alive with the arts. We believe that exposure to the arts is life enhancing and essential for all. The Performing Arts at Towers School will awaken the ambitions of all pupils; we will teach a curriculum that is knowledge-driven, that is diverse and that will make them appreciative of all art forms for the rest of their lives.

All pupils have the right to explore each discipline of the Performing Arts: to consider how humankind has found expression, to appreciate the beauty in crafted work or performance, to understand different cultures and behaviours, to have opinions on what has been created and to make their own artistic and imaginative choices.

Pupils will go to the theatre, to galleries, to museums and they will learn from practitioners and artists so that their experience of the arts is authentic. They will understand how all art is connected. They will feel inspired to be curious, encouraged to be kind and empowered to be brave.

An arts-rich education contributes to the development of all aspects of a child's powers and personality; a school that is rich in the arts enhances the life chances of a child. (Cultural Learning Alliance: 2017)
