Art
Art is a vital part of the curriculum at Holy Ghost as it allows the children to communicate their thoughts and ideas in a variety of ways and provides a much needed outlet for their creativity and imagination.
The teaching must foster this creativity and competently deliver the skills needed for the children to make progress in their learning. Our programme of study ensures that their skills progress over the course of their education, whilst promoting an enjoyment and love for the subject.
