ART

What will children learn?

 

At Thundersley Primary School, our Art and Design curriculum provides many opportunities for the children to express their creativity, passion, imagination and understanding of the arts.  We engage, inspire and challenge children with artistic experiences that will inspire them in the future. We do this through a high-quality curriculum, which allows the children to explore what they see, feel and think with the use of colour, pattern and 3D.  The children are exposed to a wide range of artists to broaden their understanding of art within the wider world. They will explore ideas and meaning through the work of others which will inspire them when creating their own final pieces.

How will children learn?

 

At Thundersley Primary School, we will achieve this by:

  • using our sequentially planned curriculum to ensure that learning builds step by step and builds on what children have learned previously
  • providing additional opportunities to engage with Art and Design activities throughout the school year such as, Whole School Projects, Children’s Mental-Health week and World Book Day.
  • linking art to termly topics and other subjects to ensure relevance and context.
  • ensuring that every child develops their  knowledge and understanding  through suitable planning, effective scaffolding and support in order to meet the needs of each child
  • encouraging a love and appreciation for the visual arts
  • appreciating the work of others (artists, craftspeople and designers) by studying a key artist in each unit of work
  • utilising a sketchbook approach, so that the children feel safe to experiment and take risks without the fear of doing something ‘wrong'
  • evaluating their own work as well as peer feedback.
  • celebrating achievements in art through displays and exhibitions.
