• Engage with contemporary art, craft and design, and work in a creative environment, as well as make work in response to local cultural influences.
• Develop their own views and express reasoned judgements through spending time, physically, with real quality artwork that has been well researched and beautifully crafted.
• Make links between art and design and other areas across the curriculum.
• Achieve parts of their Arts Award.
