Art

The art curriculum at Baldwins Gate, inspired by their vision, provides pupils with opportunities to explore the world and express themselves creatively through various artistic activities. Art is taught through a connected curriculum, linked to wider learning experiences, ensuring an immersive experience where children develop their knowledge and skills progressively. The curriculum also emphasizes the importance of art in developing creativity, imagination, self-esteem, and wellbeing through the exploration of famous artists, architects, and designers, and the development of skills in design, sketching, painting, drawing, and sculpture.

Baldwins Gate’s art policy aims to give children the opportunity to experience the world around them and express themselves in a variety of ways by widening and deepening their essential knowledge and skills.

Baldwins Gate’s art long-term plan demonstrates how our children will be taught art throughout their time at school.

Our progression map demonstrates how our curriculum builds upon each year group to further develop and enhance our children's art skill and creative understanding.
