Art & Design
Art and Design at Rugby Free Primary encourages expression using a breadth of artistic techniques. Children are encouraged to experiment and reflect, building upon their abilities to think critically about the impact our techniques have on art and design.
At Rugby Free Primary, we deliver an art curriculum that encompasses competency in drawing, painting, sculpture, collage and printing. We believe drawing is a key skill that will support the children in their wider curriculum learning and we take our time with developing this skill year on year.
We believe in helping engender an appreciation of human creativity and achievement.
Children will be introduced to a diverse range of artists and designers; exploring and discussing the impact that art and design has on contemporary life and that of different times and cultures. As pupils progress, these discussions will invite the children to use their artistic vocabulary and skills to reflect on and explore their topics in greater depth.
