ABSTRACT
Fine arts as a key learning area within the post primary school curriculum is an essential component of every Nigeria post- primary schools. It is a part of school education that focuses on a wide range of arts, such as painting, drawing and sculpture. When looking at a subject like arts education, there are opinions about whether it is a good skill for schools to teach or whether it is unnecessary and a waste of money. The course has many problems that arise as a result of differing opinions. Fine Arts education as an area of study has many challenges because its importance is not always noticeable. The thoughts that arts are unnecessary are one of the main challenges art education faces in Nigeria. This paper discusses the concept of fine arts and its importance in post-primary school level. It x-rays the historical underpinnings for fine arts education, challenges in practicing Fine Arts education in Nigeria and its Integration as well as the way forward and in addition, by using information and communication technology. The paper therefore recommends that, Fine Arts as a subject should be included as main subject like other subjects to improve the condition of its practices and help students nurture their potential through the use of information and communication Technology. This will facilitate motivation and interest of the students on the subject and encourage positive impacts on students’ behavior. The incorporation of this subject more in the curriculum and syllabus will help students in their positive mental growth.
