Our approach to Art education

The Art Department at Mougins School is passionate about providing young people with an Art education that enables them to appreciate and understand the power and impact Art has on society and culture.  Not only do we deliver projects in the classroom that builds their technical skills but also their creative and critical thinking.
We believe Art should not only be about aesthetic quality but a platform for communicating ideas to do with personal, cultural and political issues.   Your child will build confidence in observational drawing through a range of drawing techniques and will explore, play and experiment with a range of two dimensional and three dimensional media.   They will learn to understand what formal elements are and how they can be used and to what effect.  Students will respond to themes, artists, designers and crafts makers that will develop their conceptual and contextual understanding.
At GCSE our students study Edexcel Fine Art and at A-Level have the opportunity to carry on with Art, Craft and Design.
