Upcoming events.
At Beyond Creative Education, we want to improve access to high quality, purposeful and educational creative activities for everyone.
We encourage and enable a love for learning and sense of belonging, so that our participants can build a solution focused, mindful and healthy attitude to life and learning.
BCE’s core values: Creativity, Courage, Curiosity and Care, are practised and upheld in all of our work. This work continues beyond the school or college day and makes our educational and enrichment events accessible for children, young people and adults during evenings, weekends, holidays and one-off experience days.
Our specialists can design a bespoke learning experience for your learners or your team, as well as offer regular sessions which work towards qualifications and accreditation beyond the school day.
To talk about your specific needs book a discovery call or get in touch.
For our upcoming events and regular enrichment workshops keep an eye on this page and sign up for updates below.
