I have six years of experience teaching art in an outstanding primary school based in London and three years of experience teaching art in secondary schools.
Certified teacher with QTS with bachelor's and Master's degree in fine art.

I recognise that a high-quality art and design curriculum should stimulate imagination, inspire and engage my students. The intent of my art and design curriculum is to develop the creativity of pupils by providing them with a knowledge and understanding of the work of great artists alongside the skills needed to experiment, invent and create with confidence across a range of art forms.

The art and design curriculum aims to instil an appreciation and enjoyment of the visual arts. Pupils explore ideas and meanings through studying the work of great artists and designers and through developing an awareness of visual and tactile elements of art including shape, line, colour, pattern, form and space. Pupils learn about the roles and functions of art, meaning they can explore the impact it has had and continues to have on life in different periods and across different cultures.

The National Curriculum for Art and Design aims to ensure that all pupils:
• produce creative work, exploring their ideas and recording their experiences
• become proficient in drawing, painting, sculpture and other art, craft and design techniques
• evaluate and analyse creative works using the language of art, craft and design
• know about great artists, craft makers and designers, and understand the historical and cultural development of their art forms.

The most important thing for me is to keep the enjoyment and enthusiasm of my students.
