Developing the creativity of each pupil.
Key stage 3
Key stage 3 Art - One hour curriculum time per week for each pupil.
All pupils follow
a curriculum which includes
-
Drawing
-
Painting
-
Print
-
Sculpture work
 These are
undertaken in a variety of forms and revisited from year seven
until year nine. This gives each pupil the opportunity to
improve and develop skills to a sufficiently high standard to be
able to take Art as a G.C.S.E option in year ten. Pupils who
practice their skills outside the classroom as well as within
obviously develop skills and style to a higher level but by the
end of year nine it is possible to get a G.C.S.E from following
the curriculum.
Homework
is an important part of the Art curriculum. Pupils have a
sketchbook to complete this work. It is set each week and it is
expected that pupils spend at least half an hour on it. We also
have a lunch time club where pupils can choose to do their
homework if they wish.
All work
is kept in a folder throughout lower school. Pupils complete
self evaluation sheets and work is assessed at the end of each
project. At the end of year nine they are given a level.
