Art
At Dee Point Primary School, Art, Design and DT inspires creativity and imagination. It delivers visual, physical and sensory experiences and a distinctive way of understanding and responding to the world around us. It enables us to communicate with what we see, feel and think through the use of many different techniques and skills. We value the individuality of all our children by giving every child the opportunity to express themselves and encourage them to think creatively. We offer a thematic sequence of both Design Technology and Art lessons within the curriculum to ensure that the children consolidate and deepen their understanding with the subjects.
At Dee Point Primary School our Art, Design and DT Curriculum intends to:
- Have a high-quality curriculum, that inspires curiosity and fascination through a series of lessons offering skills progression and knowledge progression within and across both subjects.
- Ensure all pupils produce innovative and inspired work in a safe environment.
- Ensure all pupils learn to make informed judgements and both aesthetic and practical decisions based on their learning.
- Ensure they are involved in shaping their environments.
- Record their experiences as well as exploring ideas and meaning through the work of many important artists, designers and craft makers.
- They will become confident and proficient in a variety of techniques including drawing, painting, sculpting, printing and collage, as well as other selected design technology skills like textiles, mechanisms and food technology.
