AN art show at Skipton Girls' High School included the work of a former pupil and now successful Dales artist Katherine Holmes.

Katherine and fellow artist Peter Hicks have spent the past year working with GCSE and A Level art students at the school, helping them to shape ideas and develop skills.

And their creations were included in a show displaying the work of 15 to 18 year olds.

Headteacher, Janet Plews, said the quality of art work by students was exceptional.

She added: "The school has a reputation for excellence in STEM education, however the quality of the arts teaching and learning and the talents and skills of students is equally exceptional and an integral part of the holistic curriculum we offer our students."
