As a graduate of the Creative Industries from the Queensland University of Technology in Brisbane, I have developed a vision for the Arts in Mt Morgan Central State School. Having previously visited the school to do dance workshops, which was a very positive experience for both students and teachers, I have developed a whole school vision for the implementation of the Arts as a full time curriculum study in Mt Morgan Central State School.
As the school at them moment only has a full time music teacher, it will be difficult to implement all of the Arts thoroughly without qualified teachers available. This is where i have researched into external curriculum that offers a qualification on completion which can be taught by any teachers. Trinity College London not only aligns with the vision of the current Queensland Arts Syllabus, but also with the values and philosophies of Mt Morgan Central State School.

Trinity College London is an international examination board across 60 countries around the world. Their exams and assessments are designed to help students progress; to mark an achievement at each stage of their development, and at all levels of competence, on a journey towards fulfillment of their own individual talents and abilities. Students will participate in examinations in speech, drama, music and dance each year, progressing into a high level with each passable exam. The examinations can be done it individually or in groups, which aligns with the schools value of teaching social justice; students must cooperate and collaborate if they are to successfully move on to the next grade or difficulty.
Allowing the students to actively engage in contrasting channels to express themselves individually and as a group, the students will be able to communicate through arts elements, techniques, skills and processes, working creatively and imaginatively. The language of Art will assist teachers in getting to know their students as the Arts work as a means of understanding one another and communication through various qualities.
Trinity College London will assist in these means of communication and at the completion on the student’s course; they will receive a qualification highly valued by colleges, universities, and employers all over the world. This qualification will enhance the student’s chances of getting accepted into university and broadening the opportunities for the students of Mt Morgan.
Mt Morgan Central State School’s motto is ‘always the best’ and if we want our student to be the best, we have to offer the best. This is why Trinity College London will play an integral part in providing for our students future.
