This chapter addresses how the challenges of the global COVID-19 pandemic within Art School Higher Education (HE) were refracted through structural inequalities and class differences. It considers pedagogic responses and consequences to those unprecedented events asking what should be retained, whilst warning against the instrumentalisation of some of the strategies facilitated by the pandemic. By unpacking these issues, it considers the responsibility of HE art institutions in a ‘post-pandemic’ landscape to transform the institutional orthodoxies that exacerbate inequalities.
