Our S2 Students have made an excellent start to the year in Creative Design. The S2 course has a focus on developing subject specific skills in both Art & Design and Design Technology. Students will also be developing their creative and critical thinking.
For those who elect to continue Art & Design in S3, there will be a trip to Jupiter Artland before the change of timetable in May. This is a fantastic experience and a compulsory part of our S3 Art & Design curriculum. Please note that in line with our risk assessment process, students suitability for the trip will be reviewed on an individual basis. Places will be prioritised for those who engage well in Art & Design and meet our expectations for positive behaviour, both in the department and the wider school.
