The Art Department at Queen’s Gate is an open, airy space that welcomes and encourages pupils to develop their creative talents at all levels. Inspirational images line the walls of the department from younger pupils alongside completed GCSE and A level work.
Reflecting the Art Department ethos, traditional approaches underpin teaching at all levels, with drawing, sculpture, printmaking and painting being taught throughout KS3 and in greater depth at GCSE and A level. Older pupils use their key artistic skills to enable them to express their own personal ideas as they progress through the school, allowing them to experiment widely with different art approaches and methods, culminating in confident, highly individual pieces.
All pupils are welcome to the Department outside of lesson time to pursue their own artistic interests and share creative time with their friends, allowing each pupil to feel that the Art Department is both a learning area and a relaxed, comfortable space where their instinctive creativity can flourish.
There are four members of staff, including the Head of Art and the technician who is responsible for the smooth running of the department.
Our students regularly visit galleries and art shows and our annual A level Art trips include Venice, Amsterdam and New York.
Students participate in various Art competitions and regularly win prizes and merits of achievements. Our annual Art exhibition of GCSE and A level art is held every year in June and welcomes parents, friends and other visitors who unanimously praise The Queen’s Gate Art talent.

The Summer Garden Party was just one of the lovely ways we rounded off the school year at Queen`s Gate this Tuesday. Everyone had a wonderful time and we managed to avoid the rain!

We’re thrilled to announce that we were Highly Commended in the Muddy Stilettos 2024 Best Schools Awards, in association with leading education experts Debrett’s Education, in the `Giving Something Back` category.
We showed how our students live the values and ethos of our school beyond the classroom and into everyday life. Through our extensive Charities and Outreach programme we demonstrated how our local community benefit from the work that we do here at Queen`s Gate School, and out in the community.
With hundreds of schools taking part we are proud to showcase just what it takes to be the one of the best in modern, holistic education.

This time last week we were enjoying the incredible work of this year`s GCSE and A-Level students from across our three creative departments - Art, Graphic Communication and Design & Technology for this year`s annual Queen`s Gate School Exhibition.
The attendees were truly impressed by the variety of styles and the impressive skill displayed by the girls. It was evident from their work why such a large number of them have received offers from leading Universities for creative subjects, such as Kingston University, Central Saint Martins (UAL), London College of Fashion (UAL), London College of Communication (UAL), Goldsmiths University, University of Edinburgh, Chicago Institute of Art, Loughborough University, UCL, Instituto Marangoni - Milano, and Polimoda Fashion Institute - Florence!
Keep your eyes peeled for our digital showcase of the amazing work coming soon 👀👀👀
