Title: Cultural Education Policy: Its Justification and Organisation
Abstract: The inclusion of cultural education as a separate policy area in this book on cultural policy in the Netherlands is not self-evident. Cultural education is a hybrid field. It includes learning and teaching arts and cultural subjects at primary and secondary school (formal education) but also acquiring and transmitting arts and aesthetic/cultural competencies in other, non-formal and informal settings: e.g., art and music classes as a leisure activity, the educational activities of museums and other cultural organisations, and ‘learning by doing’ as an amateur. A chapter regarding cultural education at school might therefore just as well have been part of a book on Dutch education policy, while out-of-school cultural education might be part of a book on leisure policy.
