Thank you for your interest in the Primary Arts In-Schools Touring Programme.

Please answer every question and ensure you upload the documents asked for. The deadline for expressions of interest is 12pm Friday, 20th of March, 2026, at which time this form will be made unavailable. Before you complete this form, please make sure you have read the programme information and application guidance.

We recommend writing your answers in Word or a similar app and then copy/pasting them into this form. This will allow you to ensure you are within the word limits for each question, and will avoid any work being lost. 

Please note that as this is a London-based and London-focussed programme, we will prioritise expressions of interest from organisations based in and with significant experience of working with primary and special schools in London. As we require the programme leads to attend four full-day network meetings in person in central London, we will also prioritise organisations that are able to meet this requirement.  Please note that we use the word ‘performance’ in this EOI – we recognise that for some organisations the experience offered to children may not be a straightforward performance, so please take this as a shorthand for the group experience offered to the whole year group, rather than the workshops delivered in individual classes. If you have any questions about the Primary Arts programme, please contact the Primary Arts Team at A New Direction by email at schools@anewdirection.org.uk.
