Each class has a specific art lesson each week to develop particular skills and techniques.  They also study a variety of different artists to enhance their understanding of the skills and techniques they are learning.

Our school has been awarded the prestigious ARTSMARK. This award recognises schools that demonstrate a commitment to providing opportunities across all art forms from drama to music, design to literature, dance to sculpture. The scheme also encourages the school to work in partnership with artists and arts organisations. Artsmark is a national scheme developed by Arts Council England in partnership with other bodies. The main aim of Artsmark is to encourage scholls to increase the ranges of arts education provision and to raise the profile of arts education. To qualify for an award the school must provide major art forms of art and design, dance drama and music and a wide range of arts activity including sculpture and circus skills.
