Aim

The aim of the Visual Arts 7–10 Syllabus is to enable students to:

  • develop visual arts knowledge, understanding and skills to become thoughtful and informed visual arts practitioners
  • develop and enjoy the practical and conceptual autonomy to represent ideas in making visual arts
  • critically and historically interpret art to understand how different values and perspectives affect meaning and significance in the visual arts.
