The study of subjects in the Arts Domain fosters critical and creative thinking. The creative process develops in students the ability to take an idea from its initial stages, through development and refinement processes, and on to a finished product. Mastering this process is a key skill that can be applied across all industries and workplaces.  

Students of the Arts are taught to analyse a range of viewpoints and resources in order to examine and evaluate an identified idea. They are also encouraged to develop a personal point of view about ideas and issues in society, and to support their views with evidence and reference to the viewpoints of others. This too is a critical skill needed in all industries. 

In addition to these skills, students in the Arts Domain undergo personal development that encourages them to make an ongoing contribution to the culture of their community through participation in life-long creative practices.

Students of the Arts Domain emerge as confident members of society who can communicate as individuals and collaboratively in a broad range of social, cultural, and work-related contexts.
