Art and Design
INTENT statement
The Art and Design curriculum aims to engage, inspire and challenge all pupils in a wide range of artistic experiences. Throughout both key stages the children work in both 2D and 3D, experimenting with colour, shape, pattern and texture. They learn from a diverse range of work by various artists, building a critical understanding and becoming aware of the role of art and design in history and culture.
We offer a wide range of interactive and fun learning experiences, where children can reflect on their learning, think creatively and transfer skills they have learnt into everyday situations.
Our children use sketchbooks to record their observations and responses. There are many opportunities to experiment with materials, tools and techniques, modifying and improving their initial ideas. We believe that the process is as important as the end result and celebrate every child’s efforts.
