Creativity, Culture and Education (CCE) is a UK-based international foundation dedicated to unlocking the creativity of children and young people in and out of formal education.
This is done primarily through designing and implementing programmes which improve the quality and reach of cultural education, and use culture and the arts to improve the quality and impact of general education, working with partners from around the world.
The award recognised CCE's Creative Partnerships programme, which worked with over one million pupils across England, developing the skills of children and young people, raising their aspirations and opening up new opportunities.
