Art and Design
Art and Design Intent
At Oakley Vale Primary School we are building and developing a curriculum to empower and nurture curiosity and creativity. We believe that by creating their own works of art children develop practical skills, extend their imaginations, express themselves and build up a feel for what is beautiful. We teach high quality art lessons through an ambitious skills-based curriculum - provided by Access Art - allowing opportunities to develop using a range of media and materials. Children learn the skills of drawing, painting, printing, collage, textiles and 3D work and are given the opportunity to explore and evaluate different creative ideas, with individuality and creativeness flowing through everything they do.
