Art

Intent

Our intent for Art & Design education at St Thomas has three main aspirations at its centre:

• To provide each child with the space and opportunity to express themselves through a range of Art mediums via cross-curricular lessons and activities aimed at broadening knowledge, understanding and appreciation for different artistic styles, backgrounds and cultures
• To Inspire, engage and challenge children through a high-quality Art & Design curriculum, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create Artwork linked to six fundamental skills (colour, drawing, form, painting, pattern and printing)
• To give all children the opportunity to identify and study great artists and designers, and give them the space to critically analyse and evaluate creative works, including their own creations
