There is evidence to indicate that participation in The Arts positively impacts on students’:
- social and personal development
- attitude to learning
- literacy
- numeracy
- arts knowledge and skills
- generic competencies (writing, communicating,
- problem-solving, planning, organising, perseverance)
- enjoyment and value of the arts.
The research also suggests that arts programs in schools can effectively:
- contribute to improvement in teaching quality
- provide students with positive role models
- encourage family involvement in students’ learning
- raise specific cultural issues in Indigenous communities.
