On Wednesday (November 5), Ed Sheeran took to social media to praise the U.K. government’s recent changes to the National Curriculum that improves music education. These upgrades reflect recommendations from an open letter he and the Ed Sheeran Foundation sent over the summer advocating for more diverse music education and accessible arts study in schools. “This involves diversifying the music genres taught in schools and removing outdated systems that stop kids from studying music and the arts as part of their school day,” Sheeran wrote in support of the educational improvements, while adding that, “These changes give young people hope and the opportunity to study music.” Prime Minister Keir Starmer committed £250 million to strengthen music and drama education, with plans for a National Center for Arts and Music Education to ensure creative learning is accessible to all children.
