How We Lear Art EPS

How we Learn Art at Earith Primary School: Intent, Implementation & Impact Intent It is our intent for pupils:  To develop their knowledge of artists, designers, architects and their work.  To develop their knowledge of artistic concepts, types and styles of art and how these relate to each other in a historical context.  To produce their own artwork, progressing in artistic skills and using a range of tools and mediums.  To make connections between the work of artists, designers and architects and their own work.  To have meaningful opportunities for self-expression and individual response and to learn who they are as an artist.  To develop an appreciation for a range of art including art from different cultures. The school uses the Primary Knowledge Curriculum in order to support the delivery of the Earith Art Curriculum. The principles of the PKC knowledge-rich curriculum are: Knowledge is valued and specified. Knowledge is well-sequenced. Knowledge is taught to be remembered. The content of the PKC Art curriculum has been carefully chosen by subject experts and has been sequenced in a meaningful way that enables children to make connections and progress from unit to unit, term to term and year to year. This means the knowledge children will gain has been carefully specified, ordered coherently and builds over time. The PKC Art curriculum meets the aims of the National Curriculum for Art. As the children work through the Art curriculum, they will know more, understand more and remember more about the concepts and types of art and about themselves as artists.
