Art & Design

Art

At King Edward VI High School, our Expressive Arts curriculum is designed to inspire creativity, self-expression, and a deep appreciation for the arts. Through both Art and Music, students develop a wide range of skills, from technical proficiency to critical analysis, enabling them to become confident and resilient learners.

Key Stage 3

Our Art curriculum encourages students to explore their imagination and creative skills through a variety of media, including drawing, painting, and sculpture. Students learn to analyse and evaluate works of art, gaining an understanding of art history and different creative techniques.​

​

GCSE

At GCSE, we follow the AQA Art & Design (Fine Art) syllabus. This course is assessed through a combination of coursework (60%) and a final examination (40%). Students work to a specific brief, developing their skills in art analysis, digital photography, and sculpture, preparing them for further study in the arts.​​
