IB Visual Arts Consultancy Services
DP Visual Arts Curriculum Consultancy Services
If your school needs support with the new IB Visual Arts curriculum, I provide consultancy, exemplars, and training to help Visual Arts departments transition smoothly into the DP Visual Arts 2025 guide.
All services are tailored to each school while remaining aligned with the updated DP Visual Arts subject guide and IB Visual Arts curriculum expectations.
DP Visual Arts Curriculum Alignment (2025 Guide)
Support for schools implementing the new DP Visual Arts curriculum, including full alignment with the updated Create, Connect, Communicate framework. Services include redesigning DP Visual Arts unit planners, updating assessment tasks for SL and HL, aligning teaching sequences with the new learning objectives, and embedding inquiry based art making in the Visual Arts curriculum.
DP Visual Arts Exemplar Creation
Original exemplars for all components of the new DP Visual Arts assessment model. This includes the Art Making Inquiries Portfolio, the Connections Study, the Artist Project, and resolved artworks with rationales. Each exemplar is fully aligned with the new IB Visual Arts curriculum and designed to help schools raise standards and support consistent assessment.
Visual Arts Teacher Support
Training for Visual Arts departments that are transitioning to the new IB DP Visual Arts curriculum. Workshops focus on the new assessment criteria, teaching art making as inquiry, designing conceptual and contextual investigations, understanding SL and HL differentiation, and practical strategies for teaching the Connections Study and the Artist Project.
DP Visual Arts Student Workshops
Group workshops for students that focus on structuring the Art Making Inquiries Portfolio, building contextual connections, analysing artworks, and writing clear rationales. These workshops support the Visual Arts curriculum from a student perspective and are always planned in cooperation with the school. (Offered only through schools, not to individual students directly).
Full Visual Arts Department Transition Package
A complete solution for schools that want to align MYP and DP Visual Arts. This includes a full review of the Visual Arts curriculum, vertical alignment from MYP criteria to DP assessment tasks, a yearly assessment calendar, new unit planners, exemplar packs, and teacher training sessions.
