Welcome to Our Art Department

At our Middle School Art Department, we believe every student is an artist in the making. Our program is designed to nurture creativity, build confidence, and encourage self‑expression through a rich and diverse curriculum. From the first sketch to the final glaze on a clay sculpture, students explore a wide range of artistic disciplines that help them discover their unique creative voice.

Our classes guide students through foundational skills such as sketching and drawing, while also inspiring them to experiment with painting, collage, and mixed‑media work. As they grow more confident, students have the opportunity to bring their ideas into three-dimensional form through sculpture and ceramic work, learning to think, problem-solve, and create with their hands.

We aim to create a welcoming, inclusive space where imagination thrives, mistakes are part of the process, and every student can experience the joy of making art. Whether they are beginners or budding young creators, our students are encouraged to explore, express, and enjoy the artistic journey.

Assessment;

Skill based tests are completed for each project.  Sketchbook work is also teacher assessed. This data is averaged into a percentage which is reported to parents and pupils 3 times during the academic a year.​
