Art

Our Curriculum Intent

The Art Department strive to bring out the best in our students by building their confidence through the use of engaging live demonstrations and exemplar materials. Learners will be given opportunities to use a wide range of skills, media and techniques and encouraged to apply these in creative ways. Students will explore what it means to express themselves whilst taking inspiration from the work of other artists. We want our learners to be creative, committed, engaged and increasingly independent as they progress through the school.
