Pupil Voice

We have an Art's Subject Council at Blakehill.  
We asked the children their feelings about art at Blakehill. They were really excited to share their thoughts. We are going to use this information to help us to plan the teaching of art at Blakehill. We value the children's thoughts and are now in the process of forming an 'Arts Student Council'. An ambassador to represent the arts will be chosen for each class to provide regular feedback to the subject leaders of art and music. 
 
in addition to this we will spend time talking to children regularly to gather their thoughts and feelings towards the arts. This will help to inform any future planning and help us to develop the arts at Blakehill.
