Art, Craft & Design

The Art & Design department is integral to our School community and represents an exciting, vibrant and creative studio space for pupils, staff, parents and visitors to use at any time.

Our excellent facilities cover painting and drawing, printmaking, ceramics, sculpture, textile design, photography and history of art. Although disciplined and focused in our teaching, the atmosphere within the department is warm and friendly. Our aim is to create a stimulating environment that inspires intellectual thinking and nurtures artistic skills, critical judgment and the ability to apply creative intellect. Our teachers are not only practitioners of their own craft but also experts across a wide variety of different art forms – its their job to ensure that each pupil fulfils their potential and surpasses their own expectations.

Art and Design is studied by pupils from First Year to Upper Sixth. External exams are written at GCSE and A2 level.
