Over the time our children spend with us they develop their skills in the key areas of painting, drawing, modelling, collage and printing for Art, and food, textiles, construction, modelling and graphics/CAD (Computer Aided Design) for DT.
Teachers are free to teach these at any point in the year where they can best link the products made to the children’s work in History, Geography and Science. Each unit has featured artists/craftspeople that represent our school’s diverse community. The chosen artists use the techniques to be taught within their work. Alongside the skills in these discrete areas children are taught to explore and develop their ideas. They are also required to evaluate their work to see how it can be improved.
To be an artist is to believe in life
