Foreign Language – Subject information
At Westcott Primary School, we value art and design as a vital part of the children’s learning journey. Our curriculum allows curiosity, creativity and self-expression to develop whilst introducing them to a range of techniques, materials and artists, crafts people and designers. Our children will experiment, invent and take risks creating their own art which will allow them to explore their identity though art and design.
