Arts advocacy organisation Public Campaign for the Arts has launched a petition ahead of this year’s spending review, calling on Rishi Sunak to follow through on the pledged ‘arts premium’ for UK secondary schools.

Through a petition, Public Campaign for the Arts is calling on Sunak to ‘keep the government’s manifesto promise’ of an arts premium of ‘at least £90 million a year’ to secondary schools and distribute this as soon as possible.
