THE ARTS

The Arts

We have the view that all the learners can enjoy and achieve in The Arts. Learning through and about The Arts enriches the experience of school life as well as preparing learners for life after school.

Bringing Learning to Life through Music

Learners are engaged in a high-quality Music that inspires them to develop a love of music and their talent as musicians.  Our aim is to increase their self-confidence, creativity and sense of achievement. As learners make progress, they develop skills of listening and appraising, gain knowledge of a range of musicians and cultures and improve on composition of music. Learners develop a curiosity for the subject and we are committed to ensuring learners understand the value and importance of music in the wider community, and are able to use their musical skills, knowledge, and experiences to involve themselves in music, in a variety of different contexts.

Bringing Learning to Life through Art

Learners are fully immersed in developing new skills and knowledge, promoting understanding in the Art.  The aim of Art is to stimulate the learners mind to enhance the ability to think creatively, develop problem solving and interpersonal skills including self-esteem, behaviour and independence. Learners are supported to develop skills to use their imagination, express their feelings and communicate their ideas. Practical and innovative teaching and learning, stimulates the use of their senses and promotes creativity and expression.
