Intent

Art, craft and design embody some of the highest forms of human creativity. It is our intention that our high-quality art and design curriculum will engage, inspire and challenge students, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design. As students progress, our intention is that they will be able to think critically and develop a more rigorous understanding of art and design. Students should also know how art and design reflect and shape our history and contribute to our nation's culture, creativity and wealth.

Ethos

Art can teach us how to go into life with the ability to see and appreciate the beauty of our world. Our aim is to develop curious, experimental and confident artists who enjoy learning through the creative processes of art, appreciating that there are many ways to see and interpret the world we live in.

Careers in Art

Whether you love painting, photography, graphic design, or any other art-related speciality, career options are limited only by your imagination. Art education propels people towards creative and unexpected destinations – many of which have not even been discovered yet.

In many jobs, being able to think and plan creatively is essential. Art and maths are a good combination for design careers such as architecture, car design or engineering. 

There are many careers that require creative and artistic skills, including architecture, fashion design, advertising, media , game design, animation and work within the TV Film industry.
