We are a dedicated team of artists/teachers committed to art education. We aim to promote a broad understanding and appreciation of the visual world through making art, engaging with, analysing and reflecting upon the art work of peers and image makers. Each teacher has individual strengths, specialisms, beliefs and views. The very nature of our subject allows the teacher to contribute to the intellectual, emotional, social, physical and spiritual development of students. This must be celebrated.

‘Art is both a form of communication and a means of expression of feelings which ought to permeate the whole curriculum and the whole life of the school ….It affects, or should affect, all aspects of our life from the design of the common-place articles of everyday life to the highest forms of individual expression."   (Central Advisory Council, 1967, p267)
