The Art and Design Coordinator is Miss Preston.

At Redscope Primary School we are very passionate about the arts and they live at the core of everything we do. We believe that the arts provide our children with opportunities to express themselves in a constructive and safe way that will positively impact on all areas of their development.  

Art and Design plays an important part in the whole curriculum. These taught skills are developed and applied across the whole Primary Curriculum. It is an invaluable way to develop a child’s self-esteem, self-confidence, self-discipline, collaboration skills and their individual potential.
