St Anne’s RC was designated as a Media Arts Specialist School in the summer of 2009. The departments that lead our Specialism are Art, Drama and ICT.
As an Arts college, we aim to raise standards of achievement and the quality of learning in all our Media subjects, for all students, leading to whole school improvement in performance.
We endeavour to nurture in our students, a lifelong passion for, and appreciation of, the arts as both participants and discriminating audiences.
As an Arts college we look for new ways to enhance the learning experience, with an understanding that our Specialism can improve learning in other curriculum areas. Where appropriate our students visit galleries, theatres and others sites of interest. We will enable our students to work in school with professionals involved in the arts and creative industries and to enjoy artistic experiences inside and outside the classroom.
We continue to develop our partnerships with local primary schools, businesses and our wider community.
Here at St Anne’s RC, we try to maximise the opportunities for young people to achieve in the arts and gain access to employment, further training and higher education in the arts. We will continue to unlock the potential of technology and promote a culture of innovation in our school. We aim to ensure that every child achieves and is positioned for success in life.
