Earlyarts Objectives

The main objectives of the Dandelion partner Earlyarts, UK are:

Isaacs UK will bring members of its Earlyarts network (who are early years theatre practitioners) as learners in the whole process, visiting the partners during the process of training and making theatre. They will help share each others practices, identify common understandings in the specialist area of making theatre with and for young children and families, introduce new approaches into each participants’ practices, and help to evaluate and disseminate the learning from each experience by keeping an ongoing blog of their learning.

Their learning and reflections will also be disseminated to other Earlyarts members through the evaluation report and presentations at a UK Professional Development Day towards the end of the programme.

In addition, Isaacs UK will support the Dandelion partners in establishing an online learning environment during the project, including how to inspire and motivate network members, methods of capturing, collating, documenting and disseminating learning, and online approaches to sharing good practice and resources internationally. It is hoped that this will become an ongoing resource for theatre practitioners in years to come.
