Singlewell Primary cares about children enhancing their natural creative ability. As a school, we believe in providing equal opportunities for all; we understand that a child’s artistic ability should be valued as much as their academic ability. Through exposure to different artists, resources and techniques, Singlewell children become ambitious in producing work they feel personally proud of.

The intent behind the displayed Art around Singlewell is to provide a safe and welcoming environment for our children where their achievements are celebrated. Our children develop a resilient attitude through proficiency in drawing, painting, understanding colour, shade and sculpture, with the overall aim of developing an appreciation, understanding and awareness of inspirational art.

The Art curriculum at Singlewell engages pupils and develops a curious mind whilst exploring cultural and historical links such as: aboriginal pattern, European Artists, the Stone Age, Ancient Egyptian art work, Greek sculpture and North and Central American themed drawings. Children develop their understanding of the visual language of Art with effective teaching and carefully thought-out sequences of lessons and experiences. They also use their computing skills to produce art pictures. Understanding of the visual elements of Art and design (line, tone, texture, colour, pattern, shape, 3D form) is developed by providing an accessible and engaging curriculum which enables children to reach their full potential.
