Art & Design Technology

The documents below gives more detail about the topics covered across the school in Art and Design Technology. 

ART

It is our intent that Art inspires, engages and challenges pupils; equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent, create, develop and refine their own works of art, craft and design. The curriculum will offer all children the privilege of a broad developmental experience in both two- and three-dimensional art, together with the opportunities to enjoy, appreciate, discuss and critically respond to a variety of art, craft and design forms. The children will learn the necessary skills and build up an understanding of the way in which materials and media behave. The art curriculum will stimulate and enable all children to develop the confidence to explore and enjoy all of which the visual arts and its unique experiences have to offer and in doing so build on and develop skills which are essential to lifelong learning.

DESIGN & TECHNOLOGY
 

Creativity is allowing yourself to make mistakes. 

Design is knowing which ones to keep. 

Scott Adams 

 

At Breage we want our pupils to become aspirational, confident problem solvers, who view design technology projects with curiosity and an open, inquisitive mind both at school and in their wider life beyond. 

When given a practical challenge our pupils will be able to combine their technical skills and prior knowledge to think of a range of possible solutions and to focus on the best design choice.  

Pupils will be given opportunities to be curious about both the potential and limitations of materials, tools, mechanisms and designs. Units of work will follow a ‘Design – Make – Evaluate’ approach and have a clear, practical goal as an outcome, as well as design criteria against which finished projects can be tested and evaluated.
