Art and technology

Art

All lessons take place in the purpose-built art and design technology room and pupils benefit from working with many different media including paint, pastels, collage, clay and mod-roc. All children explore and experience a wide range of creative techniques and are encouraged to enjoy art sessions regardless of their ability.

Design technology and ICT

An appropriately equipped specialist room allows the children to engage in art and design technology which form part of their regular curriculum. The approach is very practical and good staffing ratios ensure the children actively participate in 2D and 3D work. A designated information and communication technology suite and interactive whiteboards in every classroom permit all children to become conversant with ICT. Pupils also have access to digital and still video cameras and MP3 recorders and for the early years' foundation stage, there is an ICT suite with peripherals to suit the younger child.
