We are using our advantages such as arts and universities to make sure no child in our city is left behind.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">\u201cThis deal will not just help children in terms of going on stage or what you might normally associate with the arts but also it links really well with things like information technology. This scheme will benefit schools from across Cardiff.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"line-height: 1.5;color: #000000\">Heath councillor, Graham Hinchey, said: \u201cA point from the Estyn report is the importance of getting businesses more involved in schools and we are seeing this a lot more with this paper. I really do think this is great. I can see this growing across the city and I really appreciate Councillor Merry brining this forward.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">\u201cIn our universities we are seeing clever people coming to Cardiff to be educated, to work and they are staying in the city as a result. This is definitely a positive situation.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">In the cabinet meeting it was announced that the number of people working in creative industries in Wales increased by 52% between 2005 and 2014, to almost 50,000 people.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">Peter Bradbury, Caerau councillor, said: \u201cI welcome this scheme because any work to promote arts among young people is to be applauded. It will allow for harder-to-reach parts of the city to benefit with links to BBC Wales and so forth.<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">\u201cThis has put Cardiff on the map which is appropriate as it is about getting more benefits for those in schools. I think this is one very good system where companies have achieved this change and schools have a better understanding of how important partnering is.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">Elizabeth Clark, Cathays councillor, said: \u201cIt is an good scheme because by allowing young people to have contact with big companies it is giving them the chance and showing them the importance of fulfilling their potential.\u201d<\/span><br \/>\n<span style=\"color: #000000\">A spokesperson for the\u00a0University of South Wales said: \u201cThe university is committed to transform the lives of young people to unlock their talent. This is a great project that will help educate students and train them in the best possible way. The University of South Wales is excited to be a part of this initiative.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CARDIFF council and arts companies\u00a0have teamed up with schools to help improve student education.
