Welcome to
Art
A-Level Art actively promotes original thinking and collaboration, independent learning, making, problem-solving and more. The class explore, research, and acquire techniques, skills and ways of working, which allow them to become ‘artists in residence’, rather than simply ‘students’. The teacher/student relationship in the art room becomes more that of collaborators.
