Skapande Skola

Skapande Skola is a government grant for all children to have the opportunity to participate in cultural life, to cultural experiences and to their own creation. Skapande Skola is a government grant that contributes to the long-term integration of cultural and artistic expression in the school.

The grant increases students’ own creation through meetings with professional cultural actors and gives students access to all forms of cultural expression.
In Örnsköldsvik, activities financed by Skapande Skola are coordinated by Kulturskolan. Many school units in the municipality has a council for cultural issues that the Cultural School’s coordinators for Creative Schools visit every year.

The councils plan which cultural initiatives (workshop, disguise, study visit, etc.) the school wishes to take part in. In Örnsköldsvik, there is a fixed range that is aimed at year 2, year 5 and year 8 in primary school, as well as some money that goes to the students’ own ideas and initiatives.

Skapande Skola in Örnsköldsvik collaborates a lot with the county’s common cultural institution Scenkonst Västernorrland and they have a supply page that the schools’ councils can visit https://jojjo.se/
