New Terms: Radical Education Workshop

As part of the New Terms series of events, and in conjunction with the Bloomberg New Contemporaries exhibition, the ICA Student Forum leads a workshop that aims to explore what it means to be current pedagogic practitioners in an education system in crisis.

Addressing learning and teaching in the wider sense, whilst also acknowledging the specifics of art pedagogy, the workshop hopes to bring together secondary and higher educationalists together in dialogue with students and practitioners, with guests from 'alternative' and 'radical' education collectives around London. A publication will be produced by the participants to document the collaborative investigations, analysis, and discussions, providing a reference document and developing wider access to the ideas generated during the workshop.

Although a firm conclusion will not necessarily be arrived at, the aim is to propose a new set of questions surrounding arts education in response to the ever-changing political and social climate.
