Literature- Arts education is a postcode lottery.

Another article that I have come across is "Arts education is a postcode lottery."
It says what Labour Manifesto are going to do to help the arts industry;
"refers to the creative industries as “a source of national pride”, and promises to “put creativity back at the heart of the curriculum”

But then also:
"This stops short of a pledge to add an arts element to the Ebacc – as the subset of GCSEs given special status by the government is now known"  

So the goverment want to fund into arts in the education but they are not prepared to put it into the Ebacc subjects? Another confusing moment for me. As the atricle goes on it explains that private schools are encouraging dance and the arts sujects and rpovide the best facilities. So parents that are paying for their childs learning are paying for them to be involved in the arts but not all goverment led high schools are providing this.

Matt Hannock is supporting dance is education and says: 
“We want to build an economy that works for everyone not just the privileged few,” said arts minister Matt Hancock in a speech to the creative industries last September. “No one should be excluded from any of your industries because of their accent, their gender or their postcode.” 

“Talent knows no boundaries,” he said, and I agree. But talent needs the building block of a decent education in the arts.
