The Benefits of Studying Primary Art
Our Primary Art and Design homeschooling course covers the requirements of the Primary English National Curriculum over the course of 4 years.
This course will lead pupils step by step through a rich art and design programme covering a wide diversity of art elements, skills and cultural influences.
It will help pupils develop their own creative style, encourage them to learn and experiment with new techniques and to construct and develop imaginative ideas in the form of a sketchpad.

Ava has been developing discipline and self-taught information enquiring skills throughout the months doing home school, which she never had in school. We came to realize that it is actually a good bonding opportunity to help her adjust to the studying method in the beginning. We are pleased to see her studying and preparing assignment without being asked of even in her free time. We find confidence and independence in her. Credits go to yourself and the tutors who have been helping her. I hope her interest in acquiring knowledge and the skills that she developed for herself will become her lifelong asset.

I still get excited by a blank page and sharpened colouring pencils, and my visual approach to teaching is effective when children cannot ‘see’ a way to work out a Maths problem.

Art and Design are everywhere. I strongly believe children need time to express themselves creatively: to make mistakes; to invent things; to improve their understanding of the world.

My teaching experience includes a specialism in dyslexia. I thrive on working with young people, the enthusiasm that they bring to tasks and the wonder that they feel when they learn something new.
