“Revoke the policy proposals and ensure the continuation of a UK success story. Art is essential to the growth of this country,” says the letter, which is addressed to Gavin Williamson, the education secretary. Other signatories include Zoé Whitley, the director of the Chisenhale Gallery; Alistair Hudson, the director of the Whitworth Gallery in Manchester; and the Turner prize-winning artist Helen Cammock.
Higher education is a fundamental right of all people in this country, the signatories say. “This proposal will detract from one of the UK’s fastest-growing economies. The creative industries contributed £116bn in GVA [gross value added] in 2019 and supports one in every 16 jobs.”
