Welcome to the new National Arts in Education portal. The Arts in Education Portal was one of the objectives of the Arts in Education Charter – signed December 2012 by the Minister for Education and Skills and the Minister for Arts, Heritage and the Gaeltacht. A major objective in the Arts in Education Charter, was the establishment of a National Arts in Education Online Portal for arts education in Ireland (4.12). The Charter Implementation Group, established by both Ministers in 2013, has given detailed attention to the planning and design of such a portal. With the appreciated assistance of experts from a variety of partnership organisations much progress has been made and Ireland’s Arts in Education Portal was launched on 19 May, in Dublin Castle. The ethos for the portal is about building a community of practice within arts and education, and providing a space where both artists and teachers can be supported and inspired. It will provide a platform through which good collaboration practice in arts-in-education and arts education will be supported, developed and enhanced. Submissions for the portal will be invited on an ongoing basis and templates and guidelines have been drawn up to assist those who wish to make a submission. The Portal’s development is rooted in the desire to empower people, and build confidence, passion and support. Underpinning the development of the portal is a strong and implicit shared belief in the intrinsic value of the arts in the lives of children. The Portal – through the content that it shares – will have a role in advocating this value. The portal seeks to reflect current practice that is taking place in Ireland. Its vision is to establish a structure through which the arts and education community can be developed. From here, the content will develop through continued support and building of the community both online and offline. New features for the Portal will be phased in over the coming months. The aim is to make the portal the key national digital resource of arts and education practice in Ireland. A communications strategy is planned which will outline ways for the Portal Editor to maintain ongoing dialogue and communication with the arts/education community. Quality of content will be a key guiding criterion. When in operation, the Portal will provide an unprecedented opportunity for young people throughout the country to engage productively with arts-in-education in Ireland. The following definitions from the Arts and Education Charter help to give an understanding of the nature of Arts-in-Education practice: “While much arts-in-education interaction occurs within school time, not all of it takes place on the school premises. There are two strands to arts-in-education practice: one involving interventions by the arts world into the domain of formal education, and the other involving students engaging with the arts in the public domain, usually in publicly-funded arts venues, whether local or national. “Arts-in-education practice involves skilled, professional artists of all disciplines working for and with schools in the making, receiving and interpreting of a wide range of arts experiences. Arts-in-education practice can happen within or outside the school. It ranges from once-off visits, through more extended programmes, to intensive, collaborative projects. “Artists, arts organisations, pupils, teachers, and sometimes, primary carers, work together to create arts experiences that enrich the curriculum and support the core educational mission of the school. Arts-in-education practice enriches the lives of all involved, particularly in nurturing the developing the minds and imaginations of the pupils.” Governance The governance of the Arts-in-Education Portal is overseen by an Editorial Committee, comprising representatives of the stakeholder groups that the Portal serves. The current committee members are: Dr. Katie Sweeney (Chair) National Director for the Integration of the Arts in Education (DES) ………. Helen O’Donoghue Senior Curator: Engagement and Learning, IMMA (Representing Encountering the Arts, Ireland) ……….

Fáilte chuig Tairseach nua na nEalaíon san Oideachas . . . Bhí Tairseach na nEalaíon san Oideachas ar cheann de chuspóirí Chairt na nEalaíon san Oideachas – a shínigh an tAire Oideachas agus Scileanna agus an tAire Ealaíon, Oidhreachta agus Gaeltachta i Nollaig 2012. Ba mhórchuspóir i gCairt na nEalaíon san Oideachas Tairseach Náisiúnta Ar Líne na nEalaíon san Oideachas a bhunú i dtaobh oideachas na n-ealaíon in Éirinn (4.12). Thug Grúpa um Chur i bhFeidhm na Cairte, a bhunaigh an bheirt Airí in 2013, aird mhionsonraithe ar phleanáil agus ar dhearadh na tairsí sin. Le cúnamh a fháil ó shaineolaithe ó eagraíochtaí comhpháirtíochta éagsúla, a bhfuiltear buíoch as, rinneadh go leor dul chun cinn agus seoladh Tairseach Ealaíon san Oideachas na hÉireann an 19 Bealtaine, i gCaisleán Bhaile Átha Cliath. Is é éiteas na tairsí ná chun pobal cleachtais laistigh de na healaíona agus den oideachas a fhorbairt, agus spás a sholáthar inar féidir tacaíocht agus spreagadh a thabhairt d’ealaíontóirí agus do mhúinteoirí araon. Soláthróidh an tairseach ardán trína dtacófar, trína bhforbrófar agus trína bhfeabhsófar cleachtas dea-chomhoibrithe sna healaíona san oideachas. Tabharfar cuireadh d’aighneachtaí don tairseach ar bhonn leanúnach agus cuireadh teimpléid agus treoirlínte i dtoll a chéile chun cabhrú leo siúd ar mian leo aighneacht a dhéanamh. Tá forbairt na Tairsí bunaithe ar an mian chun daoine a chumasú, agus chun cur le muinín, paisean agus tacaíocht. Tá comhchreideamh tréan intuighte i luach intreach na n-ealaíon i saol leanaí mar bhonn agus taca le forbairt na tairsí. Beidh ról ag an Tairseach – tríd an ábhar a chomhroinneann sí – chun tacú leis an luach seo. Lorgaíonn an tairseach chun an cleachtas reatha a léiriú atá ar bun in Éirinn. Is é fís na tairsí chun struchtúr a bhunú trínar féidir pobal na n-ealaíon agus an oideachais a fhorbairt. Forbrófar an t-ábhar feasta trí thacaíocht leantach agus tríd an bpobal a fhorbairt ar líne agus as líne araon. Tabharfar isteach gnéithe nua don Tairseach ar bhonn céimnithe sna míonna amach romhainn. Is é an cuspóir ná chun an phríomhacmhainn náisiúnta dhigiteach de chleachtas na n-ealaíon agus an oideachais a dhéanamh den tairseach in Éirinn. Tá straitéis cumarsáide beartaithe ina dtabharfar cuntas ar bhealaí go gcoimeádfaidh Eagarthóir na Tairsí plé agus cumarsáid leanúnach ar bun le pobal na n-ealaíon/an oideachais. Príomhchritéar treorach a bheidh i gcáilíocht an ábhair. Nuair a bheidh sí i mbun feidhme, soláthróidh an Tairseach deis nach raibh ar fáil roimhe seo do dhaoine óga ar fud na tíre chun tabhairt faoi na healaíona san oideachas ar bhonn torthúil in Éirinn. Féadfaidh na sainmhínithe a leanas ó Chairt na hEalaíon agus an Oideachais cabhrú le tuiscint a thabhairt ar chineál chleachtas na nEalaíon san Oideachas: “Cé go dtarlaíonn go leor d’idirghníomhú na n-ealaíon san oideachas laistigh d’am scoile, ní thiteann sé go léir amach in áitreabh na scoile. Tá dhá shnáithe ann maidir le cleachtas na n-ealaíon san oideachas: snáithe amháin ina bhfuil idirghabháil ag domhan na n-ealaíon isteach i réimse an oideachais fhoirmiúil, agus snáithe eile ina bhfuil mic léinn a thugann faoi na healaíona sa limistéar poiblí, de ghnáth in ionaid ealaíon a chistítear go poiblí, bíodh siad ina n-ionaid áitiúla nó náisiúnta. “Is éard a bhíonn i gceist le cleachtas na n-ealaíon san oideachas ná ealaíontóirí oilte gairmiúla i ngach disciplín a oibríonn do agus le scoileanna chun réimse fairsing d’eispéiris ealaíon a chruthú, a fháil agus a léirthuiscint. Féadfaidh cleachtas na n-ealaíon san oideachas tarlú laistigh nó lasmuigh den scoil. Bíonn idir cuairteanna aonuaire, cláir níos sínte agus tionscadail dhiana chomhoibríocha i gceist leis. “Oibríonn ealaíontóirí, eagraíochtaí ealaíon, daltaí, múinteoirí, agus amanna, cúramóirí príomhúla as lámh a chéile chun eispéiris ealaíon a chruthú a shaibhríonn an curaclam agus a thacaíonn le croímhisean oideachais na scoile. Saibhríonn cleachtas na n-ealaíon san oideachas saol gach duine a bhíonn bainteach ann, go háirithe maidir le haigní agus samhlaíocht na ndaltaí atá á bhforbairt a chothú.” Rialachas Déanann Coiste Eagarthóireachta, ina bhfuil ionadaithe de na grúpaí páirtithe leasmhara ar a bhfreastalaíonn an Tairseach maoirsiú ar rialachas Thairseach na nEalaíon san Oideachas.
