Only 2.3% of artists named in GCSE art papers over the last five years in the UK were Black or Asian. Art teachers lack confidence and support to discuss minority ethnic artists, with many not exposed to diverse practices in their education.
Black and Asian students face parental pressures to focus on subjects other than art at four times the rate of their white peers. The lack of diverse representation in the curriculum contributes to students seeing art as a luxury rather than relevant to their lives.
