EXAM RESULTS

Art and Design students at Charters School will be inspired by opportunities to make discoveries and adopt a ‘what if’ approach. They will use a broadening range of mediums and processes to support their creativity. Through research, exploration and experimentation, recording from their own environment and the world around them, they will be equipped to communicate through creative, individual, and personal outcomes, generating an increasing confidence, enjoyment, and sense of enquiry.
The Art department aims to be lively, relevant, and supportive; one that is valued by the community and is inclusive, so that everyone can express themselves.

This means:

They will be able to confidently analyse, evaluate and articulate their understanding of artwork using an art-based vocabulary based on written work and discussion
They will appreciate the historical, contemporary, ethnic, political and cultural diversity of the art community, and through this appreciation, learn to understand the deeper meanings, codes and symbols embedded within it
They will record experiences and observations, in a variety of ways using drawing and other visual forms, such as photography
They will generate and explore potential lines of enquiry using appropriate media and techniques, and apply this knowledge and understanding to making, reviewing and modifying images and artefacts
They will learn to understand how ideas, opinion and experience generate starting points for art and design practice, forming an integral part of the creative process
The students will be able to present a personal and creative response that realises their intentions, making meaningful connections between their visual research, opinions and observations
