COLORING ACTIVITIES. Many children and adults suffer from stress and anxiety at times. An over busy brain makes it difficult to concentrate on tasks and the feelings associated with anxiety can cause distress and further anxiety. Recent research suggests that activities which focus the mind without being overly taxing can help break the cycle of worry and anxiety and can help calm the busy mind. One such activity is coloring. This resource provides 40 original hand drawn kaleidoscopic images. The repetitive nature of the patterns is intentional, encouraging the individual to settle into a calming routine. Drawings range in complexity, making it a suitable resource for all age groups, including adults. I hope that enjoyment and a sense of calm can be found by using this resource.

GDPR regulations have resulted in schools having to tighten data regulations. One area that Art departments must be aware of is the taking of photographs and their use within student work. It is no longer good enough to have a cover all photography agreement form, things are now far more specific. This resource provides a clear, sensible GDPR policy for Art departments. This policy will ensure that your department is covered with regard to collection and use of photographs of students and staff.

It’s that time again when you have to justify your department’s A level results. You might find that your ALPs score is poor.
