Art

Intent

Art is more than just learning how to draw and paint. It has long been used as a political and cultural tool, a way of disseminating and sharing ideas, beliefs and experiences. Today, it provides a window into the culture, society and history of generations gone by, and those to come.

Implementation

Impact

A consistently well-rounded and thorough experience of learning in art will guide pupils to understand the important role that art has and will play in society, as both a historical and cultural tool. It will teach children the skills that enable them to realise their own artistic potential, and represent their own experiences creatively.
