2014, it is my first day at TAISM. I just remember being scared out my mind and worried nobody would like me, but moving schools is definitely the best academic decision I have made. I previously went to The Sultan's School, and dreaded getting up in the morning because of it. Coming to this school has made me realise my passion for art, I actually considered going to art school for a while, which made my mum really excited because she is an artist. But another thing that has interested me for…

Arts education in public schools is a topic people are discussing because they are questioning whether it really does impact student success.

Parents result in sending their child to a school that has a curriculum based on Common Core State Standards, which has a focus on English and math.…

Waldorf Schools are private, equivocal and non-denominational programs with an art-based curriculum. In 1919, the first Waldorf school was founded by Philosopher Rudolf Steiner in response to the trauma gripping Central European youth following World War 1 (Regeneration, 2017). Due to its unique curriculum, Waldorf schools remain relatively ambiguous to the general public. When first making contact with this pedagogy, people tend to find certain peculiarities within the school that may provoke…

Guoping Zhao says that, “In education, art has often been perceived as entertainment and decoration and is the first subject to go when there are budget cuts or test score pressures.” It seems once these cuts are made; it is very rare for these arts…

Throughout the course, we as a class have observed many landscapes, each unique in its own right, yet the National Arts Schools of Cuba really garnered my attention.
