At St Bernadette’s RC Primary School, we aim to provide all children with a broad & balanced curriculum which prepares them for life
beyond primary education. We believe that high-quality Art & DT lessons will engage & inspire children to think innovatively, develop
creative procedural understanding & exercise their creativity & imagination. The children are taught to combine their art & design skills
with knowledge & understanding in order to design & make a product that solve real & relevant problems within a variety of contexts,
considering their own & others’ needs wants & values. During art & design technology lessons, we teach children the language skills
they will need to be effective communicators. We actively encourage our children to be critical thinkers, forward planners & effective
problem solvers. We also teach our children to work on their own, as capable individuals, & as a valued member of a team. Resilience is
an important element of our art & DT, & whole school, curriculum & our children are encouraged to ‘innovate’ & take risks.
Our Art Subject Leader is Miss Owens.
