Art and Design
At St Helens CE Primary School, our Art and Design curriculum plays a vital role in fostering creativity, self-expression, and confidence in every child. We offer a broad, high-quality, and progressive approach that encourages students to explore their own ideas and develop key skills across a range of artistic media.
Our vision is to inspire each child to achieve their full potential and make positive contributions to society. Through the nurturing of creative talents, we provide opportunities for students to develop not only technical ability but also an appreciation of diverse cultures, traditions, and perspectives. Guided by our Christian values, children learn to reflect on the world around them with empathy and respect.
At every stage, from Early Years to Key Stage 2, we encourage inquisitiveness and originality, allowing students to experiment with drawing, painting, sculpture, and digital art. Our knowledge-rich curriculum also introduces them to great artists, designers, and architects from history and today, helping them make connections between their own work and the wider world.
By embracing equality and diversity, our Art and Design lessons ensure that every child feels valued and inspired. With our supportive, nurturing environment, we prepare students to face life’s challenges, celebrating their achievements as they shine brightly both in school and beyond.
