About the Book

How can arts-based learning shape the future of education in Ireland?  Arts Education in Ireland dissects this question using a rich collection of research and case studies spanning early childhood, primary, secondary, and higher education. Through an examination of the evolving role of the arts in the Irish curriculum, this volume showcases how visual arts and interdisciplinary collaborations between educational and cultural institutions are transforming teaching and learning. With contributions from educators, researchers, and artists, this collection focuses on key themes such as teacher identity formation, student engagement, and the impact of creative pedagogies in developing twenty-first-century skills. It also highlights innovative programs like the Writers in Schools scheme, offering insights into how the arts foster critical thinking and deeper learning experiences. Accessible yet deeply researched, this book is an urgent reference for arts educators, students, and researchers worldwide. Whether you are new to arts-based learning or seeking unique perspectives on interdisciplinary education, Arts Education in Ireland provides both theoretical and practical insights into the power of the arts in shaping meaningful learning experiences.
