The AEMS project led by Maggie Semple and based at the Arts Council was one of the most ambitious and successful recent projects in intercultural education. It introduced black artists and their music, drama, literature and a range of other art forms to mixed race and all-white schools and colleges in many areas of England and Wales actively involving hundreds of teachers and thousands of pupils.
This report also analyses the project, describes its activities and considers how its achievements can be still further developed into a genuinely multicultural arts education for all young people. It is published with the financial support of the Arts Council of England.
This evaluation of the strengths and weaknesses of the project is very honest and well worth a read by any teacher interested in promoting antiracism (which should be all). - Education Review
