For Pupils
Skills, knowledge and vocabulary are re-visited and built on as they transition through school. Individuality is encouraged, as children take ownership of their artwork and develop their own style and preferences. Children become reflective learners, by discussing and evaluating their own artwork and the work of others. Artwork is shared and celebrated, to raise the children’s confidence and aspirations for the future. We set high expectations, encouraging children to build on their resilience as they overcome problems and learn from these. Children learn about a wide variety of artists from all walks of life. We want the children to become confident artists and become proficient in their different art skills. Staff and children are aware of expectations and discuss how work can be improved upon. Art and design is an important part of the broad and balanced curriculum at Mattishall Primary School. We aim for children to develop a life-long love of Art and Design.
