Why is art education important in our schools? And what are the outcomes of a quality art program? When deciding to implement a quality art program into a school, we need to look at what importance and the role art education plays in the development of students.
The Constitution has set out important outcomes that learners should achieve in general. These outcomes will guarantee that learners gain the abilities, knowledge, qualities and values that will allow them to contribute to their own success as well as the success of their families, communities and the country. The outcomes in general will help students with problem solving, decision making, organization and communication.
When we use these outcomes in the teaching of Arts and Culture, learner’s academic achievements will improve by them realizing their full potential, and the will to succeed. Learners at the Intermediate and Senior phase should be given opportunities to discover their potential and talents. Learners should learn to make adequate decisions, and to plan for their future. It is also important at this phase for students to focus on critical and creative thinking skills and their role in the society. Respect for self and others, training and life skills and self-expression are all important aspects that students at Intermediate and senior phase will need to learn. Only being exposed to art, will students gain above skills. The Early childhood news shared: “By almost every measure, children who have the opportunity to study the arts are happier, more
