Intent 

To deliver the art specific content set out in the national curriculum.

Implementation 

We implement this through:

• exposing children to a progressive range of art specific  vocabulary
• exposing children to a diverse range of artists
• engaging children in a range of skill based activities with a variety of materials and media
• giving children the opportunities to experience art outside the classroom

Impact 

For our pupils to:

• have a raised cultural capital
• be able to understand and use art specific vocabulary
• have mastery of a range of artistic skills
• foster a love of the creative process
• be inspired

Progression and Sequencing 

Art is taught through a thematic approach across the whole school. Each year we build upon five key artistic skills.

	Autumn 1	Autumn 2	Spring 1	Spring 2	Summer 1	Summer 2
Unit	Colour	Drawing	Whole School Exhibition	Form and 3D	Texture	Pattern

Each year, these skills are built upon and children are exposed to a range of artists, subject specific vocabulary and have the opportunity to use a range of different media.
