Art

All students are involved in Key Stage 3. Art-pupils use technical and expressible skills in recording ideas and feelings. They show a developing ability to analyse and represent chosen features of the natural and made environment. They are increasingly able to research, organize and experiment with relevant resources and materials. They modify and refine their work to realise their intentions and plan and make further developments taking account of their own and others views and the history of art from many cultures.

Pupils analyse images and artefacts, using appropriate, art crafts and design vocabulary and identify how ideas, feelings and meanings are conveyed in different styles and traditions.

They compare work across time and places recognising characteristics that stay the same and those that change. They critically appraise their own and others work in the light of what was intended.

In Key Stage 4 those students who have selected the subject for GCSE follow a set course on observational, analytical and interpretive studies, including, aspects of the history of art relevant to their work.

We send many students to universities across the world to pursue an art degree of their choice, which could be; painting, sculpture, fashion and textiles, internet design work, film and animation, restoration and gallery work. Also, in the commercial world of art.
