Unleash creative potential through the power of the arts

The Royal Opera House (ROH) Create & Learn Programme is a flagship project designed to build teachers' creative confidence in facilitating arts-based learning.

It offers three pathways that connect the National Curriculum with ROH artists:

  • Create and Dance - experience the power of dance, storytelling and wellbeing

The programme includes high-quality teacher CPD, flexible teaching resources, and participation events.
