Studying the visual arts not only develops cultural understanding and visual literacy, it also enriches the way our students engage with the world around them.

The Arts
As the arts are a crucial part of school life, we make sure our students are exposed to the widest range of participation opportunities. Our department not only develops artistic expression and diversity, it builds a portfolio of skills that directly enriches the way our students engage with the world around them, through:
- Greater concentration
- Increased confidence in their writing, oral and aural skills
- More productive group working skills, including a greater respect for their peers
- An increase in self-discipline, dexterity, co-ordination, self-esteem and personal confidence.
We know the arts are important. We know creativity can ennoble and inspire the very heart of a learning community. Just take a look.
