Over October half term a group of young people from across Leeds attended a CapeUK consultation workshop at Studio12. The workshop aimed to find out what young people think is important when it comes to providing a high quality arts experience . Their opinions will contribute to Find Your Talent’s on-going quality assurance work.
During the workshop participants created a larger than life 3D collage of the ‘ideal’ artist and the results were captured on stop frame animation. The group created four videos in total – this one describes the kind of knowledge that an artist should have, whilst the others show what young people expect from a practitioner in terms of experience, values and attitudes.

CapeUK were recently appointed to deliver the first phase of FYT’s Quality Assurance brief. Over the next few months CapeUK will be consulting with a wide range of stakeholders from Leeds’ cultural and education sectors to produce the following outcomes:
- A QA badging system that reflects best practise frameworks currently in use by arts organisations and schools.
- A Code Of Conduct written in consultation with creative practitioners working with children and young people.
- An assessment of regional QA training provision and recommendations for QA training themes to be delivered during Phase2
Consultation will take place online; at events; and through phone interviews. If you are interested in participating in this research please contact abby.dix-mason@leeds.gov.uk for more information.
