UNDER CONSTRUCTION DUE TO NEW ACCESS ART CURRICULUM BEING DEVELOPED.
We are introducing the new Access Art curriculum to give children more opportunities to explore and develop their own creativity. It encourages self-expression, experimentation, and problem-solving through a wide range of techniques and materials. By focusing on individuality and creative thinking, we aim to inspire confidence and a love for art. This approach ensures all children can develop their artistic skills in a way that is personal, meaningful, and engaging.
Art I pupils are also challenged and inspired through specialized art activities and opportunities that nurture their skills, creativity, and artistic growth. Every year, Art I pupils participate in the Christmas Tree Festival at St James Church as well as other extra curricula art activities.
An integral part of the Access Art curriculum is talking points around a variety of artists, techniques and the children’s own work, This provides numerous opportunities for the children to develop their oracy skills.
As part of our half termly home learning sheets, there might be an element of Art linked to one of the tasks. Please help encourage your child’s enthusiasm and enjoyment of Art by supporting them with this home learning.

Assessment focuses on developing each child’s understanding of art rather than just mastering specific techniques. Self and peer assessment play a key role, encouraging children to reflect on their work, give constructive feedback, and appreciate different creative approaches. This helps them build confidence, critical thinking skills, and a deeper appreciation of artistic expression. The emphasis is on personal growth, creativity, and the ability to communicate ideas through art.
