About

Liverpool, famous for its vibrant art, culture and people, is known as the ‘Pool of Life’. Culturepool is a Liverpool Learning Partnership (LLP) initiative signposting educators to exciting art and culture that is relevant to children and young people.

Culturepool was developed in response to teachers and education leaders who wanted to know where to look for cultural education resources, activities and experiences for their students. Now, at any time, cultural organisations can directly upload their offers and schools can view these offers.

LLP is a founding member of the Liverpool Cultural Education Partnership (LCEP) which was established in March 2016 in response to Arts Council England’s Cultural Education Challenge. This asks local areas to join up to share resources and bring about a more coherent and visible delivery of cultural education so that more children and young people can:

• Visit and experience exhibitions, concerts, shows and plays
• Make and create their own art
• Reflect and report on their learning and experiences

Please get in touch if you’d like to be added to the mailing list for our newsletters and updates.

Culturepool also publishes opportunities for teachers and education leaders to:

• Network and take part in continuing professional development
• Develop partnerships with local arts and cultural organisations and artists
• Explore careers opportunities for young people in the cultural sector
• Link to Curious Minds, which champions cultural education across the North West and supports Artsmark and Arts Award; and their Culture Hubs website where you can find wider information about art, culture and Local Cultural Education Partnerships across the North West.

Please get in touch if you’d like to let us know what you think of the website, and how we can improve it.

Thank you for visiting Culturepool!
