REAL ART

I am a class teacher at St Benedict's Catholic Academy. We contacted Lesley as we were keen to have a bespoke piece of artwork created which promoted the British Values we teach in school. We identified a large space on the school hall wall where we hoped it would grab the attention of the children and create meaningful conversations. It is safe to say, we couldn't be happier with final result. From start to finish, Lesley couldn't have been more helpful! Happy to fulfil our vision, Lesley provided us with a variety of ideas, colour options and shades that match perfectly to our school colours. She accommodated children from each year group, matching the different skills to their age. Not only did they have a great time wirking with a professional artist and contributing to our school artwork, all the children all left with a real sense of achievement and pride at what they had done. Our British Values Display is now hanging proudly in a space where the whole school gather together and we can't thank Lesley enough for her hard work, time and skill set. It is truly stunning.

Lesley came into Our Lady of the Assumption to work alongside our pupils to produce artwork based on our school mission statement: love one another as I have loved you. Lesley was so easy to work with and the finished art was exactly what I had envisaged. Lesley worked brilliantly with the children and they are so proud of the finished artwork.

REAL Art recently visited our school to complete straining with teachers and HLTS's on how to use sketchbooks effectively. Lesley spent time with her team ensuring that their CPD matched our units of work so that everything they delivered could be transferred to the classroom. The were very prepared, bringing a wide range of resource with them for staff to use. Everyone felt so inspired! We will definitely be booking in more CPD for our school.

Real Art have transformed our dull and listless library at Howes Community Primary School into an enchanted, magical space that the children can enjoy reading in. The work they completed was to the highest standard and have inspired the children. We would love to have them back!

Lesley and her team did an amazing job of creating a range of 'Bookbenches' for our playground. Lesley listened to all of our requirements and took all of the children's designs and created fabulous, bespoke designs which incorporated a range of book characters. All of the team were professional and the children loved working with them, helping to paint the benches. I would highly recommend Lesley as she is very knowledgeable and professional.
