Art and Design
Curriculum Intent
At St Alban’s Catholic Primary School, we value art and design as valued part of the broad and balanced curriculum we deliver to our students. We aim to deliver an art and design curriculum that reflects the culture of our school, and widens our student’s understanding of art in the wider world. We have designed a curriculum that will not only develop the skills outlined in the National Curriculum, but provides our students with the opportunity to learn about and be inspired by artists, craftsmen and designers from a wide range of cultures and backgrounds, including great artists from history.
