From Individuals

"What a FABULOUS, WELL-CONSTRUCTED, INFORMATIVE place to visit and learn! I'm a professional business woman, with 3 children and a hankering to become an artist - living north of Toronto in Canada. You've made art accessible to everyone - from 3 to 100! Thanks!" Lisa Philpot

I am attempting to rediscover an old passion for drawing - with some success - however I went through the exercises on your site and, wow, yes, I`ve learnt more in half an hour than I would have done scratching away with a "B" pencil for a month !!! Thank you very much !!!" Michelle Howe

Thank you so much for a truly inspiring site for budding artists young and old!" Rhys Taylor

Hello, I just wanted to say "thank you" for the great introduction to casting, which my children thoroughly enjoyed and were able to grasp easily. They have both now cast their hands in plaster and we look forward to experimenting with other objects and ideas. Many thanks again." Samantha Baker, Zimbabwee

From Organisations

We receive lots of positive feedback from key organisations, here's a sample:

"A rare example of successful active learning on line in this sector" Peter Clarke, Museum Learning On Line

"A great site. I will use it in the under 5's Journey that I will create for our Parents Online week! Thanks" Alison. Parents Online Project Manager, ICT in Schools, DfES

"We think the AccessArt site is wonderful!... a fabulous resource for teachers and pupils. The online art workshops are presented in a highly visual, engaging manner" Topmarks Education

"The AccessArt site is fantastic . . . 10/10!" British Educational and Communications Technology Agency (Becta)

"Art teachers will find some innovative resources for classroom use at this colourful website. These are fully supported by teacher's notes and print-outs for pupils. Keep checking back for new additions" Weekly Top Choice, BBC Education Web Guide

From Teachers and Schools:

"Excellent! This online resource encourages the children to pay close attention to detail, thus improving the standard of finished work tenfold! Well done, and thank you for an excellent resource bank!" Shirley Brakespear

"I love this site.. Have used it with my kids and done a superb class sculpture, which I can send you when I've got my act together. Best wishes," Kate Darby "PS The sculpture is all the better because my kids all have learning difficulties."

"Super site. Clear and practical...and fun. Usable by teachers and pupils. More like this please! Thanks!" Audrey Nicholson

"Hello, I work with over 300 teachers in 23 special schools in the South West of England. I think your website has great potential used with a smartboard in a room which has been darkened for children who are visually impaired and children with cerebral palsy, retts and autism. I know that these sites will be extremely useful. Many thanks." Stephen Yates MA (Ed)

" What a great web site! As a non-artist who works with children's groups I feel I can use this resource to help children produce work to be proud of! Thanks to all involved." Mandy Tulloch.
