TAP in Primary Schools
TAP in OOSH
Primary Schools
​
​TAP can move creative artworking into before school, recess, lunchtime, afterschool with groups resembling ’art clubs’ (this is a space to allow for autonomy and self initiated, intrinsically motivated, ongoing projects) TAP can move into classrooms and work with whole class teaching/learning groups (these often look and feel like ‘art lessons’, however with little or no directives and a focus on process-art, these have overview and introduction to materials or technique, time to artwork, and then ‘exhibition’ and reflective overview. TAP also provides primary settings with the option for drop in studio spaces.
Out Of School Hours
​
OOSH can be very welcoming to TAP Participants, having been at school all day, are often ready for self initiated art working. The art materials provide a sensory, embodied focus and with the practice of rituals of respect to contain the artworking, a culture of agency and autonomy can be quickly established. TAP in OOSH feels like one large artclub allowing for drift and ongoing projects. At times one large invitation to play splits into small pods of different materials. Children and staff accessing materials and making spaces for themselves to artwork is empowering when held and encouraged by the facilitator.
