Art and Design
Art at Chilvers Coton School
Our Art curriculum is structured so that children develop skills and knowledge to be confident artists by the time they leave Year 2. We focus on developing children's knowledge of colour, texture and using different media as well as studying the work of different artists to inspire our work.
Sketching and observational drawings are key features of art lessons to ensure children are looking closely at details and develop their drawing skills as a result. Later on this year, we will be holding a whole school 'arts week' focusing on the theme of our school building at it is 110 years old in 2020.
