Visualise: Race and Inclusion in Art Education

What to expect

The session will explore the findings and recommendations of the Visualise Report led by Marlene Wylie.

Marlene Wylie is a Creative Education Consultant & Facilitator and current President of the National Society of Education in Art and Design (NSEAD) and is the project lead of the Visualise: Race and Inclusion in Art Education research commission.

Marlene will be presenting key findings from the research and leading a workshop to help teachers to consider and apply these findings to their own teaching practice.

What is the Visualise Report

Runnymede Trust and Freelands Foundation report is an essential read, rich in qualitative and quantitative data. The report has found significant under-representation of minority ethnic artists in school curricula. As well as calling for diversification of the curriculum, the report also calls for greater diversity and representation in examination papers, and in the workforce more broadly.
