INTRODUCTION
Art, Craft and Design are three inter-dependent disciplines. They are
fundamental to human existence, predating written language. They play
a major role in human evolution and development. Each involves a
different way of thinking:
Art emphasises ideas, feelings, and visual qualities
Craft emphasises the right use of tools and materials
Design emphasises planning, problem-solving and completion, using
drawing as a means of thinking
Art, Craft and Design provide a unique part of the education of the
whole person, through heart, head and hand, enabling the person to
shape his or her world with discernment, and to understand and
appreciate the work of others. The benefits of an education in Art,
Craft and Design for the student at this developmental stage extend
far beyond a competence in the subject itself (and the ability to
apply it through life): Art, Craft and Design education develops a
number of important personal qualities, particularly those of
initiative, perseverance, sensibility and self-reliance.

(i) Working a personal response to an idea, imagination, memory and observation
(ii) Using drawings for direct observation and analysis, as a means of
thinking and for communication and expression
