Domain Leader – The Arts
In the Arts, we advocate the use of critical and creative thinking skills through enquiry-based learning in the contexts of Visual Arts, Media, Design, Music, Drama and Dance. We offer a diverse range of pathways that can lead to further studies at TAFE or University and the creation of a portfolio of work that can lead to jobs within the Arts industries. The Arts also offer a great balance to the STEM subjects and can help students express their beliefs and values in a creative way, using problems solving skills.
