Art | Fine Art Art is not what you see but what you make others see Go Go Our Art curriculum intends to: Develop intuition, reasoning, imagination, and dexterity into an unique form of expression and communication. Develop an appreciation of the aesthetic nature of the world around us. Critically evaluate the way cultures are represented through their arts and celebrate diversity. Why Learn Art? Art is a vibrant and dynamic subject that offers pupils the freedom to learn in ways that inspire and bring out the best in their skills and knowledge. Art embodies some of the highest forms of human creativity. A high-quality art education will engage, inspire and challenge pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design. Pupils will learn how art and design both reflect and shape our history, and contribute to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation. Our pupils will build theoretical knowledge of the concept of art itself, as well as acquire disciplinary knowledge and appreciation of the techniques of artists and craft-makers. EYFS | KS1 Content KS2 Content Year 7 & 8 Content Year 9 Content Year 10 & 11 Content Overview of the course: It is important for children to engage with the Arts regularly and to explore a range of media and materials. This interaction will help them work towards early learning goals. We recognise this need and therefore we integrate Art into our learning of topics in EYFS and KS1. Key stage 1 Our pupils are taught: to use a range of materials creatively to design and make products. to use drawing, painting and sculpture to develop and share their ideas, experiences and imagination. to develop a wide range of art and design techniques in using colour, pattern, texture, line, shape, form and space. about the work of a range of artists, craft-makers and designers, describing the differences and similarities between different practices and disciplines, and making links to their own work. Overview of the course: We integrate Art into our learning of topics from Year 4. In Year 6 we deliver Art as as discrete subject taught be a subject specialist. Key stage 2 Our pupils are taught to develop their techniques, including their control and their use of materials, with creativity, experimentation and an increasing awareness of different kinds of art, craft and design. Specifically we cover how: to create sketch books to record their observations and use them to review and revisit ideas. to improve their mastery of art and design techniques, including drawing, painting and sculpture with a range of materials [for example, pencil, charcoal, paint, clay]. about great artists, architects and designers in history. Long Term Plan for Primary phase Art - Long Term Plan Course skills: In Year 7 pupils will be introduced to a broad range of new techniques, materials, artists and themes. These experiences will set the foundations for developing as an effective artist and creative thinker. In Year 8 pupils will build on the skills, techniques, knowledge and understanding introduced to them in Year 7. They will be encouraged to show refinement within their work and challenge themselves in a creative way. Pupils will work through three different projects per year, engaging in practical tasks, discussion, group work and home learning projects. Each termly project is designed to help pupils understand the art they see around them and why art is so important within the world and in recording historical events in a visual way. Each project is designed to cover practical skills, knowledge and understanding, and creative thinking. Pupils will experiment with both 2D and 3D media and explore techniques including painting, printing, collage, and sculpture. Drawing is seen as a fundamental art skill, which is encouraged and developed across all year groups. In Year 7 pupils begin to develop a more realistic style of drawing and are taught the importance of keen observation, accurate line and use of tone. This is continued throughout Year 8 and onto GCSE level. Knowledge & Understanding: How ideas, feelings and meanings are conveyed in images, artefacts, and products.
