Further School Information
Art and Design
In Art and Design, our pupils learn how to create pictures in a range of different media, to develop their own ideas and put them into practice. Much of the work in Art and Design links to topic and environmental work. Children learn to look at things carefully and develop an awareness of colour, pattern, texture, line and shape. We aim to increase their confidence and progress their skills using different techniques with pencils, paint, textiles, printing and collage and clay work. We are fortunate to have our own kiln on site.
We teach the necessary skills for the children to develop their natural ability, to be expressive and creative and to produce finished work of a high standard.
In visual and other arts we provide opportunities for the children to collaborate with “real” artists and to learn about the works of famous artists.
