Ofsted quote: "The quality of provision in Art and Design is
very good with the work being overwhelmingly creative. "
Art and Design Technology are separate National Curriculum
subjects, but they are closely linked. The principal aim in Art
is creativity and expression, whereas that for Design Technology
is product design, quality of manufacture and consumer
satisfaction. Both subjects, however, have at their heart, the
interaction between the mental image and what can be produced.
The subjects are taught by four specialist staff in purpose
equipped rooms. Group sizes, time allocation and resourcing are
all better than the national average. High quality products have
always been a hallmark of these areas and most pupils are eager
to take their work home.
The school has an excellent collection of works of Art and these
are used to good effect in the pupils' work.
See below for examples of pupil work.
