Bow Arts agrees to: Contribute £ 17, 000 towards programme delivery and project management. This equates to 41% of the project costs (usually 18% for Bow Arts projects) for an eight-school consortium Project manage the programme, in line with a delivery plan agreed by the schools Provide access to our pool of professional, contemporary artist educators Monitor the activities, and collate annual evaluation of the work of the partnership Quality assure the programme through our exemplary safeguarding processes, skilled and knowledgeable staff and contractors and evaluation frameworks 4. The partner schools agree to: Contribute an average of £ 3, 000 per school depending on the number of pupils on roll (see example breakdown by school below) Based on eight schools, this equates to 59% of the costs of the programme Provide a nominated member of school staff, released for a minimum of half a day per term to plan and develop the programme A commitment from head teachers to one planning and one review meeting per year A commitment to evaluating the programme, including access to relevant school data, and disseminating the findings with other schools Pay additional costs of project materials 5. Partnership Funding / Economies of Scale: Pooling financial resources enables schools to achieve a greater economy of scale – making funds go further. It also enables access to a broader programme of work than schools would be able to access individually. The collaborative approach makes it possible for Bow Arts to attract and commit match funding, including the Paul Hamlyn Foundation currently being offered.
