Artist-in-School Scheme

Artist-In-School Scheme (AISS) supports collaboration between schools and practising Singaporean artists and arts educators in developing arts education programmes customised to meet students’ needs.

This scheme aims to:

Support arts projects that are aligned with the school’s long term plans of developing a vibrant arts culture
Enhance students’ arts appreciation and creative thinking process through interactive learning from artists
Support projects that have a whole-school approach

NAC provides schools with seed grants of up to $10,000 or 30% of the qualifying cost submitted (whichever is lower). After the first year, schools are eligible to apply for the NAC-AISS grant for the same project for up to a maximum of 2 consecutive years.

NAC-AISS projects can also use the Tote Board Arts Grant to subsidise up to 50% of the project’s costs.

By the end of each project, the completed Evaluation Report and Teacher's Feedback forms have to be submitted to NAC. Non-submission of the report and feedback forms may affect future applications for AISS.
