Placements:
Buile Hill Visual Arts College – started in October and will continue until the end of the school year. To attain this position I had to undergo a selection process, as well as safeguarding and mentoring training. I chose to take a First aid course to further develop my skills. I work as a High School Mentor in the Art department of the Secondary School in Salford. I have worked with 7, 8, 9 and 11. My involvement in the school has involved me assisting pupils with their work by providing advice on how to develop work, encouragement, assistance and demonstrating art techniques, all of this has helped improve my confidence.
Noahs Ark – I work as a volunteer at the children’s art and play group. I help set up and prepare the event with the other volunteers. Then once the children have arrived I help them complete their art, keep them safe and entertained until their parents come and pick them up.
