What we value
Our teaching is underpinned by our clear values for art education:
Exploration, progression, independence and inclusion
​​​​​​Exploration
We value the process of making art as highly as we value the product.
We understand that creativity often emerges through artistic play. .
We'll provide your child with their own sketchbook and we'll encourage them to use it as a space for personal exploration.
​
Progression
​
We recognise that children arrive at our clubs with a range of different abilities but that they all want to learn.
We’ll work out what your child needs and help them to build on their skills at their own pace.
​
​
​
​
Independence
We aim to give children the artistic skills that will empower them to see themselves as individual artists.
We provide guidance and inspiration while encouraging children to make their own decisions. In this way they will learn to create art that is uniquely theirs.​
Inclusion
We value and welcome every child to our art clubs. We are committed to meeting your child’s needs and to giving them a positive and safe experience while in our care.
