Art

Our 5 Key principles:

  • Pupils can produce their own creative work
  • Proficient in a range of art, craft and design techniques using a range of materials and tools
  • Know about great artists and their work
  • Understand how art can convey meaning and is an important part of culture and history
  • Evaluate and comment on the effect and impact of their own artwork and that of others using age appropriate art and design vocabulary

Intent:

At Ardley Hill Academy we aim to provide pupils with broad spectrum of creative opportunities including maintaining a sketchbook to record and develop their artistic ideas and practices.

Pupils will explore a range of processes and the origins of such processes including artists, craft makers and designers who have used them. 

Resilience and engagement will be achieved through a thorough and explorative art curriculum with aspirational cross-curricular links and outcomes. Art will also be used as a form of communication and to promote healthiness through mindful and expressive practices.
