Through Art and Design pupils are given the confidence to express themselves. By developing an awareness of their own identity pupils communicate how they see the rich qualities of the world around them and within them.

The continuity of specialist Art and Design education from Primary 4 upward, and the numerous extra-curricular activities - Art Club, Young Arts Groups, school exhibitions and gallery visits, provide a source of pleasure and inspiration for pupils, parents and staff.

The course is designed to provide a wealth of diverse artistic experiences, providing opportunity for; 2 & 3D Expressive work; Textile, Graphic, including CAD, Product and Fashion design. Investigative drawing supports all these activities. In addition pupils study the related work of Artists and Designers.
