ART AND DESIGN at WIJPS

Intent

At WIJPS, we believe that high-quality Art lessons will inspire children to think innovatively and develop creative procedural understanding. We value Art as an important part of the children’s entitlement to a broad and balanced curriculum. Our Art curriculum provides children with opportunities to develop their skills using a range of media and materials.

Aims

The national curriculum for art and design aims to ensure that all pupils:

  • produce creative work, exploring their ideas and recording their experiences
  • become proficient in drawing, painting, sculpture and other art, craft and design techniques
  • evaluate and analyse creative works using the language of art, craft and design
  • know about great artists, craft makers and designers, and understand the historical and cultural development of their art forms.
