Ryarsh Primary School

Art

The aim of our art curriculum is to provide a balance between experiencing, creating and responding to art in its widest form.

We ensure our children have regular experiences and exposure to a diverse range of artists, craft makers and designers. Through this learning, our children recognise and understand  some of the significant historical and cultural developments in art. They will also learn to evaluate and analyse both their own and others work.

Our children will be equipped with basic drawing, painting, sculpture and other craft and design techniques as well as an understanding our 7 key elements of art.

One Page Summary

Our one page summary document provides an overview of how we teach art at Ryarsh Primary School.  It is based on our overall curriculum intent statement (which can be viewed by clicking here).

Curriculum Progression Document

Our curriculum progression document is based on our overall curriculum intent statement and details the powerful science knowledge and skills that we aim to teach our children, and the sequence in which they are taught. 

The knowledge and skills stated are based on key scientific concepts that we aim to teach our children from when they begin school in reception to when they leave school at the end of year 6. These concepts are revisited and 'spiral' over time so that children form a deep understanding within and between various units. 

As part of our ongoing evaluations, our curriculum progression documents are continuously strengthened. Below is a copy of our most recent version. They will be updated on our website periodically.
