Curriculum: Art / DT

 
Through our art curriculum, children have the opportunity to appreciate and enjoy a wide variety of artistic experiences; these also include art history and the diverse artistic traditions of the world. At Darell, we find that knowledge and understanding go hand in hand with creativity.


The school has a very high reputation for the quality of its art teaching. It is obvious to the visitor that the visual arts permeate the whole school. We hold the nationally awarded Gold ArtsMark.

Children are given the opportunity to explore work of different artists. A variety of materials are used to produce work, and each year, children will experience printing, painting, collage, 3D work, sketching, model making and mosaics.

We have had a number of artists-in-residence to enhance the work led by the class teacher; this is a wonderful opportunity for children to see how an artist uses their tools to produce a piece of work. We have visits from exhibition curators and the children make visits to and work collaboratively with galleries and exhibitions.
