9.1.2.4.2. 2 Create a Culture of Professional Hamish and I are working towards new more refined classroom practice. We will look at PD opportunities to do this. I think a closer collaboration between us and our Ta's will improve the general feel of primary art. We also hope to have links with Sian and caroline at dover
