Art and Design
My name is Amanda Barnett and I lead the subject of Art and Design across our school. In this role, I have a strategic overview of this subject and regularly liaise with teachers, in all year groups, to ensure that your child has a rich and exciting experience of Art. I also coordinate whole-school, ‘one off’ events, linked to artistic celebration.
Below you will find a lot of information about your child’s journey through our school as an artist.
If you have any questions about this subject, or have relevant expertise that you feel you could offer, then please do not hesitate in contacting me: amanda.barnett@stokedamerelacademy.org
