Curriculum Aims
The Art department aims to give all students a balanced and structured programme of art and design, which has been developed in association with the national curriculum and exam specification.
Students’ interest and enjoyment of the subject will be encouraged, while fundamental skills are taught and developed. All students at Key Stage 3 will explore the formal elements, such as line, tone, colour, shape etc and will experience a wide variety of media, techniques and processes. They will be exploring the work of others, celebrating other cultures and appreciating diversity. Through developing their skills and understanding at Key Stage 3, students will be able to work with increasing confidence and independence throughout Key Stage 4 and 5.
Our belief is that students should be encouraged to develop their creativity and individuality through their work, and value what they achieve. We aim to give students to opportunity to fulfil their full potential in art and design.
