What we value​

Individuality
​
Inclusion
Progression
​
We recognise that children arrive at our clubs with a range of different abilities but that they all want to learn.
​
We provide expert guidance in a range of techniques and processes.
​
We work out what each child needs and we help them to develop knowledge and skills at their own pace.​​​
​
​​​​​​Exploration
We value the creative process as highly as the finished artwork.
​
We understand that creativity typically emerges through artistic play, and we encourage each child to explore their own ideas and interests.​​​​​
Individuality
​​​
We encourage each child to value an individual approach to making art.
​
We want children to make decisions about their work and to create art that is uniquely their own.​
​
Each drawing, painting and print they make will be different from those of other children.
Inclusion
​
​​We welcome children of all abilities.
We have extensive experience of supporting children with additional needs within mainstream settings.
​
We're committed to meeting children's needs and to giving them a safe and positive experience while in our care.
We make sure that every child, whatever their needs, enjoys their experience with Sketchbook.
