About Us

 

The Arts Unit is part of Specialist Programs, Schools within the NSW Department of Education and Training. It delivers programs and services that are beyond the capacity of individual schools and regions. It has responsibility for the design, management and delivery of a suite of programs in the Arts that:

 

• build the capacity of teachers to deliver arts education through targeted professional learning
• provides students with access to learning experiences that complement and extend school and regional programs
• provide high profile public performance, exhibition and competition opportunities.

 

Arts Unit programs encompass dance, drama, music, visual arts, debating, public speaking, spelling and special events.
