LFAS Student Profile

Passionate and talented Arts' students, who's passion is clearly demonstrated by their full participation in the curriculum. 


Translation: Teachers are less concerned with natural talent, and more concerned with work ethic. To have an effective creative education, students need to be "coach-able." Therefore, teachers at LFAS are looking/marking for the following qualities:

1) Resilience

  • Students who are able listen to feedback, and implement said feedback into their own practice
  • Students who take their own initiative to overcome challenges

2) Creative Thinking ("Novelty Factor"/ Generating Ideas / Developing Ideas)

  • Students who use their creative ideas as a form of self-expression
  • Students who are able to generate new ideas
  • Students who are able to develop a body of creative work
  • Students who are willing to take risks with their thinking

3) Collaboration & Participation (Relational Learning / Collaborative Relations)

  • Students who are engaged listeners
  • Students who clarify and extend questions (translation: students who strive to understand and then take it to the next level)
  • Students who contribute to plans
  • Students who solve conflicts or challenges
  • Students who share and connect ideas to others
  • Students who give and receive constructive feedback
