The DCMS has no specific plans to make an assessment of the work of the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities. However, a report published in May 2011 by the President’s Committee on the Arts- Arts Education: Winning America’s Future Through Creative Schools was identified and reviewed as part of the independent report on cultural education that was commissioned by the Department for Education and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport.
