Open ended idea:
Where groups of children seem to show great talent and interest in a particular area of art....that should be nurtured and harbored and encouraged by the school. Opportunities should be given to those students to excel and improve.
Not all children show interest in all areas of a subject so there is no point to make them do something they are not invested in. Art is a subject where creativity cannot be forced instead 'time' and fluidity should be given to the student to harvest thought and ideas.
