Kapow! Here’s a cool Back to School Art activity for kids 9 to 14. There are a range of superhero templates that kids can use to design their own superhero character.

This one page, fully editable resource provides a “ready to go” statement to explain to your Senior team and Ofsted how metacognition is inherent in art education in your school.
