Art & DT Intent, Implementation & Impact - 2021-22
Through Ogbourne’s curriculum and Christian values, we aim to develop children’s independence with a life-long love of learning. Our intention is to motivate pupils through an engaging curriculum that meets the needs of all where we develop children into skilled problem-solvers.
Through an appreciation of the work and influence of significant artists, crafts makers and designers, as well as the properties of a range of media and tools, we will teach our children the skills and knowledge they need to experiment, invest and create their own works of art, craft and design. They will be taught to use a range of materials but each year there will be a particular focus on mastering techniques in drawing, painting and sculpture. They will be taught to use their knowledge and understanding of the seven elements of art to think and talk critically, using the language of art, craft and design. Our children will be encouraged to work creatively, to be inspired by their own work and the work of others so that they want to learn more about themselves and the world of art, craft and design.

Music Opportunities
All our children have a music education as part of the National Curriculum. All children learn to develop their listening, performing and composing skills; they all have an opportunity to take part in our annual performances: the Christmas Singalong, the Nativity, the music concert and our end of year production.
All junior children also learn to play the recorder. Y6 children learn the handbells during the Autumn Term with Mrs Gordon-Finlayson, a local enthusiast. We use the bells from the church and participate in their services.
In addition, we offer peripatetic lessons in brass, guitar, drums and piano for individuals / small groups of musicians. For this, there is a charge - see the Charging and Remissions Policy below.
