Art
Art is valued as an important part of our broad and balanced curriculum. Our topics throughout KS1 and KS2 will cover local and global artists, who are both male and female, giving the children a rich and diverse view of art. EYFS will cover Expressive Arts and Design throughout all areas helping to develop imagination, creativity and the ability to use media and materials. Practical lessons will be accessible to all therefore helping to develop engaged, resilient and unique individuals. As our children progress through school, they will learn transferable skills to use in their other subject areas. Our children will learn how to express their feelings and improve their overall well-being focusing on their Personal, Social and Emotional development. Looking at different cultures and places helps to create links closely with other subjects such as Geography and History. By experiencing different skills and vocabulary used by artists, our children will learn about, line, tone, texture, colour, pattern, shape and 3D form. Lessons will inspire our learners to work collaboratively, be critical thinkers and understand that everyone can be artistic; therefore helping our children to progress into confident and competent learners for the future.
