Creative Learning Networks

In order to ensure that young people have access to the best possible creative learning experiences and opportunities, Education Scotland and Creative Scotland are supporting local authorities across Scotland to develop Creative Learning Networks (CLNs).

The Networks encourage collaborative working across the Education, Culture and Communities sectors and bring together those with an interest in children and young people’s creative learning. Their ultimate aim is to build young people’s confidence, achievements and skills for future life and work.
