Art and Design

We aim for the children to leave Rampton Primary with a love of Art and Design by:

• Enabling all children to have access to a range of high quality art experiences
• Inspiring confidence, value and pleasure in art
• Opportunities to learn across the curriculum

Art at Rampton

At Rampton Primary School, Art is taught alongside class projects with cross-curricular links wherever possible. Lessons are immersive and fun, and children are encouraged to take ownership of their sketchbooks and use them as a working document, showing practise and progression of skills. There are opportunities for children to get involved in 'Artist of the term' which is a whole school initiative which introduces children to various artists and illustrators and encourages children to create work based on their style, or to create work inspired by them. There is a competitive element to this too, and children are able to win prizes.

We have a creative board in the KS2 corridor which showcases work throughout school, clearly showing the progression of skills from EYFS to KS2.

Children had the chance to enter a competition to create the illustration on our reading book vending machine. This was a great link between art and reading and lots of children entered with some great ideas. The winning entry is now on the vending machine for all to see.
