Art and Design

Vision

We want Art lessons to inspire and challenge the children and equip them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design both 2D and 3D as well as to be able to think critically and understand how art and design contribute to their understanding of History and Culture.

Intent

Through our Art curriculum, pupils will not only acquire a broad range of Art subject knowledge but also draw on disciplines such as mathematics, science, engineering and computing. Along with all of the other cross curricular areas, our curriculum identifies opportunities to promote writing. We deliver a high quality Art and Design education that ensures all pupils become resourceful, imaginative and creative. Our Art and Design curriculum develops children’s skills and knowledge in Art through sketching, modelling, a variety of medias and self reflection.

We use the Kapow Primary Scheme as a framework for our Art curriculum, click for more information:
