Pupils should be taught about the visual and tactile qualities of materials and processes and how these can be manipulated and matched to ideas, purposes and audiences.  They learn about codes and conventions and how these are used to represent ideas, beliefs, and values in works of art, craft and design.

We also look at on continuity and change in the purposes and audiences of artists, craftspeople and designers from Western Europe and the wider world (for example, differences in the roles and functions of art in contemporary life, medieval, Renaissance and post-Renaissance periods in Western Europe, and in different cultures such as Aboriginal, African, Islamic and Native American).
