Impact

The impact of our Art and Design curriculum is that children leave Barnham CEVC Primary School with the knowledge, skills and confidence to express themselves creatively and thoughtfully. They will have developed a secure understanding of the formal elements of art and will be able to draw upon a range of techniques, materials and processes with increasing independence and control.

Pupils will be able to discuss and evaluate their own work and the work of others using appropriate artistic vocabulary. They will demonstrate an understanding of how art and design reflect and shape history and culture, and will recognise the contribution of artists, craftspeople and designers from a range of times and traditions.

Children will produce creative, high-quality outcomes that show progression in skills and a clear understanding of the knowledge taught.

By the time they move on from Barnham, pupils will have developed resilience, curiosity and pride in their achievements. They will have fostered a lasting appreciation of the visual arts and will understand that creativity is a valuable and powerful way to communicate ideas, emotions and experiences.
