Statement of Intent

At Finchale Primary School we are proud of our curriculum and the range of experiences we provide for our children. Our curriculum is accessible to all children, irrespective of their ethnic background, gender, disability, religious or linguistic background. We strive to meet the needs of those pupils with additional needs, including special educational needs, those with disabilities, those who are more able, those with gifts or talents and the children who are learning English as an additional language. We provide a rich and challenging curriculum which aims to stretch our children. Staff monitor our children to ensure that they are supported in their learning, whatever their ability.  

Art Statement of Intent

At Finchale Primary School, we intend to deliver a curriculum with a diverse range of experiences, so that they can experience the Arts from different cultures and periods of historical significance by organising a range of events, visits and performances. We encourage pupils to explore the Arts beyond school and celebrate the skills they develop beyond the classroom as well as those developed within school.  The aim of our Art curriculum is to ensure that children’s own experiences will result in them being able to use the visual elements of Art confidently. We also expect children to be able to look at an image or a piece of art and to have an understanding of it as well as an understanding of the language of art and design.

We have developed a progressive Art curriculum across KS1 and KS2 which will enable the children to build on their skills year on year and to have the opportunity to learn about many art forms and artists.
