Through our art curriculum we aim:

• To enable children to record from first-hand experience and from imagination, and to select their own ideas to use in their work
• Encourage our children to value themselves, their feelings and their responses and ideas, alongside those of others
• To develop the capacity to make aesthetic judgements and understanding of the language of art and design and the function it serves within different societies
• To develop skills in using materials, techniques and processes that will allow children to express their ideas, feelings and emotions
• To develop a capacity to appreciate artefacts, make critical judgements about them, and relate them to social and historical contexts.

By the end of each key stage, pupils are expected to know, apply and understand the matters, skills and processes specified in the relevant early learning goal or programme of study. By the end of Key Stage 2, our end points for pupils are to:

• produce creative work, exploring their ideas and recording their experiences  

Our Art curriculum is based on our vision, values and mission (RACE: Respect, Aspiration, Community, Enquiring Minds). It follows the National Curriculum from Y1 - Y6 and is taught for a minimum of an hour a week in alternate half terms. (Autumn 2, Spring 2 and Summer 2).

A variety of methods are to be employed in the teaching of art and design, which will afford pupils access to a range of resources and ensure that they are encouraged to develop their potential to the full. Key Stage 2 children are also given the chance to complete an Arts Award set by the Arts Council.
