‘Global Street Art Club’ has been founded by Art and Design Teachers Ms Wright and Miss Scruton. It is an extension of a recent Key Stage 3 Scheme-of-Work entitled Body Decoration and Street Art in which Students are encouraged to study diverse cultural visuals and traditions from Maori Art to Urban Street Art.
A trip to the current street art exhibition at Tate Modern is planned for the Summer Term.

The club has been immensely popular and it is something pupils love to do, don’t just take our word for it:
“It is a good way to keep us out of trouble and lunch and it stops us from putting graffiti around the school! We can learn how to make decorative lettering and use different art materials.”
Harry Franklin, Year 8
“We’ve learnt how to do graffiti style lettering and relief work.”
Joshua Silk, Year 8
“We get to choose what we do and we are learning how to make things”
Taylor Jezzard, Year 8
