The benefits of studying Lower Secondary Art and Design
The Lower Secondary Art and Design course will enable learners to explore the limitless possibilities that exist both in art and in their own creativity. They will experiment with new techniques and media through video tutorials and be guided towards developing a personal style and approach.
We are living in a world where everything around us has been created or made, such as the chair you are sitting on, to the clothes you are wearing. Most ideas begin with a pencil and paper and a designer’s imagination and vision. This course aims to offer a wide range of new skills and techniques with which students can express their ideas, and respond to the world around them, through the medium of Art and Design.
We offer a wide range of courses at Lower Secondary Level.
Key topics covered
The course covers the following topics:
- Printmaking
- 3D sculpture
- Graphic design and typography

Lower Secondary Geography
The study of our Secondary Geography homeschooling course (English National curriculum Key Stage 3) helps young people make sense of a complex and dynamically changing world. It builds on your child’s own experiences to enable them to investigate places at all scales, from the personal to the global.
Lower Secondary History
Our Secondary History homeschooling course will help students develop a chronological overview and to make connections within and across different periods and societies. History fires children’s curiosity and imagination, moving and inspiring them with the dilemmas, choices and beliefs of people in the past. It helps them develop their own identities through an understanding of history at personal, local, national and international levels.
Lower Secondary German
Communicating in German will help your child get to know the German people and the German culture. Learning another language, such as German, will open your child’s mind to new ideas and new ways of looking at the world.
Lower Secondary Computing
Almost all parts of our lives are affected by computer programs. On this Computing course students can begin to learn the advanced skills needed to make computers work for them.
Moza enjoys the art lessons greatly! It is her favourite lesson for the week, and she is always painting or drawing. She says it “makes her relax.”
