Creativity

The Arts

Through the Arts, our children learn how to express the imaginative, creative and individual aspects of their character and we inspire our pupils to explore new experiences, nurture their talents and help them to fulfil their potential. 

Through our well-planned, progressive skills-based Art curriculum, children learn new  techniques and consider why people create Art, why it is important and  explore ideas and concepts both old and new. They learn to work successfully in different media and we encourage them to find pleasure in their growing skills, and help them to respond sensitively to the world they see, while learning to evaluate and critically discuss their own work. We often link Art projects to other subjects such as History and Religious Studies as this collaborative and cross-curricular approach engages and  stimulates learning. 

Music plays a fundamental, vibrant and influential role in our school culture. We have opportunities for children of all abilities to become involved through access to modern music technology, individual instrumental and singing lessons. Through music confidence grows and our children gain the rewards of dedication and  self-discipline. Pupils participate  in a variety of choirs, orchestras,  ensembles and bands, and perform  in external competitions, European choir tours and local events. 

Drama provides our pupils with a  conduit to express themselves, build  confidence and develop their own  interpretation of movement, mime,  singing and acting. We provide  opportunities for them to participate  in clubs and performances throughout  the year and drama blends particularly  well with English where we explore  creative writing and plays.
