Intent
|
At Anchorsholme we provide our pupils with an Art and Design curriculum that consistently: inspires curiosity through the study of a range of Artists, techniques and resources; We empower children to feel confident when sketching, painting, sculpting, or using textiles; We provide an environment where children can collaboratively explore ideas and experiment with different media, and we allow opportunities for the development of communicative skills through discussion based on personal creative choices, artist and art movements. |
