The Art Department

At Wychwood we have a long established and very successful Art Department within which many disciplines are able to flourish.  A general Art and Design course is taught in Remove – Lower Transits (Years 7 – 9) and Fine Art (Painting and Drawing) is then studied at GCSE, AS and A Level.  This, along with Textiles, Photography and History of Art, provides an excellent base for the many students who go on to Foundation and Degree courses, and a superb single creative subject if taken as part of a more general timetable.

We believe very strongly in encouraging pupils to develop their own personal styles of working and then to produce work that is a reflection of their own creative imaginations.

Building confidence in the pupils’ own ability is essential, and the Wychwood Art Studios provide a safe, yet stimulating and knowledgeable environment, in which to discover just how much you can really achieve.
