Our Art curriculum provides children with the opportunities to develop skills using a range of media and materials. Children will be taught the skills of drawing, painting, printing, collage, and sculpture through carefully planned sequences of lessons.  They will explore ideas through studying the work of artists and designers, as well as developing an understanding of how Art and Design both reflects and shapes our history. Children are encouraged to experiment and investigate with different techniques and media, to think critically and reflect upon their own ideas and the ideas of others. Children are exposed to a range of works and develop knowledge of the styles and techniques used by famous artists.

We believe that Art and Design encourages children to use their imagination, think critically and develop an appreciation of a range of art forms.
