Welcome to the 2025 Stamford School GCSE & A Level Art Exhibition. 

This year, the next generation of talented young artists reflect on the people, events and places that have brought meaning, joy and delight to their lives.

There are people we meet, things we do and places we go, that make our hearts sing. They can be obviously delightful or surprisingly ordinary. But they have a particular significance and an importance, fleeting or long-lasting, in our lives. Students’ work might depict actual people, events and places, or it might represent a more abstract expression.

School Art Departments represent a vital supply pipeline of the professional artists of the future, and this is their platform to stimulate our thinking about the wonders of the world we live in-to remind us of why the arts matter, to showcase their skills, and to convey their views and feelings. 

This is a wonderful opportunity to celebrate the arts and advance their place in the curriculum, and their importance in our lives. It is also a time to recognise excellence of our school and the talent, creativity and sensitivity of the students. It is imperative that we keep the arts in education secure and flourishing. If young people are to make a truly valuable contribution to society, whether they are to be successful scientists, engineers, doctors and technicians, they need to develop their creative skills, their artistic sensitivities and their ability to communicate and interact with others.
