THE talents and achievements of pupils at York's specialist arts college were celebrated with a night of prizes.

York's Theatre Royal proved a fitting setting for Canon Lee School's prize- giving celebration last night.

Canon Lee became a Specialist Arts College in September 2005, since then there has been enormous development in the range of activities, opportunities, facilities and resources available to students.

Head teacher Kevin Deadman celebrated the achievements of all the prize-winners and explained to parents the significance of arts college status.

He said: "I believe that the arts will help to support learning across the curriculum and importantly help to support learning for all our students.

"I believe that through the arts the communication skills of many of our students can be enhanced and enriched.

"Finally, learning through the arts has the capacity to reach inside a person and, through this, allow another aspect to our students' life's to develop, flourish and achieve.
