Fundashon Plataforma Kultural, as overall coördinator of the program Cultuureducatie met Kwaliteit CN has started the first conversations with various parties. The Program is made possible by Fonds voor Cultuurparticipatie. A cooperation agreement has also been made with the Public Entity Bonaire. With this program, Fundashon Plataforma Kultural will work together with the education and cultural institutions on Bonaire on a vibrant and creative future for the children in primary education.
Cultural Education with Quality (CmK CN) is about purposeful learning about and with art, heritage and media through targeted instruction, both inside and outside schools. The project is now starting step by step at an appropriate pace so that everyone has the opportunity to participate. During CmK CN, the schools can inspire and help each other and the cultural field to continue.
Good cooperation between the various parties is essential. This will take place through Communities of Practice (CoP). A CoP is a group of 'practitioners' who learn with and from each other how they can make their cultural education for pupils more durable. Here all parties come together and attention is paid to vision development, training, planning of the cultural map, knowledge sharing and expertise promotion. In short, the Communities of Practice (CoP) is central to the approach and collaboration.
In March 2020, the first LKCA (Landelijke Kennisinstituut Cultuureducatie en Amateurkunst) training for cultural education was held at Hòfi Kultural. Schools, policy officers and art teachers affiliated with cultural foundations participated and during the training various points of attention and ambitions of the various parties were communicated.
In addition to setting up the Communities of Practice, Cultural Education with Quality CN will stimulate the cultural environment of the child by promoting the expertise of art teachers and teachers, planning a Cultural Map and organizing Cultural activities at school.
