Mrs BaldwinHead of Art & Photography

The Art, Design and Technology faculty here at the Wilnecote school is a large, well-resourced department offering a range of subjects and specialisms for students. Courses are delivered through a team of multi-talented, enthusiastic staff who have a range of knowledge and skills suited to teach multiple specialisms. The ADT faculty are proud of the achievements students make and have vast experience to support them in achieving their very best. We want students to enjoy their time in our faculty, be proud of the outcomes they produce, and have the opportunity to share this with the community.

In the Art department we offer a KS 3 curriculum that exposes students to a range of media, techniques and contextual studies that enable skilful development in the application and articulation of the visual elements. Our curriculum helps to build resilient and independent learners that installs the high expectations for GCSE and readies them in making an informed choice for their options.

At KS 4 we offer Fine Art, Photography, Graphic Communication and 3D Design which we believe is a strong range of specialisms on offer, should a student wish to choose a creative career path.

Courses are delivered by a team of multi-talented, enthusiastic staff who possess a wide range of knowledge and skills, enabling them to teach multiple specialisms. The Art and Photography department is proud of the achievements students make and has vast experience in supporting them to achieve their very best.

In the Art department, we offer a Key Stage 3 (KS3) curriculum that exposes students to a range of media, techniques, and contextual studies. This enables the skilful development of their application and articulation of the visual elements. Our curriculum helps to build resilient and independent learners, instilling high expectations for GCSE and preparing them to make an informed choice for their options.

At Key Stage 4 (KS4), we offer Fine Art and Photography for students wishing to choose a creative option, helping them with their post-16 career path. The courses are well-structured, allowing students to develop their creativity and showcase their talents by exploring a variety of media and techniques.
