The remaining 45 minutes of the session will be an open forum to discuss the art curriculum together, ask for advice on how to achieve certain techniques, where to find resources and bring along examples of artwork and art projects which have been successful to enable other teachers to benefit.
We will also give out the password for this blog to allow teachers to post images and information, creating a useful resource all year round.
