Art - Subject Intent

At Silverwood School, Art offers a multitude of opportunities for creativity and expression. Art is taught both discretely and also woven through the entire curriculum so that it is accessible and in line with developmental stages.

Art offers a multisensory approach to learning and there are opportunities to refine skills through ambitious challenges. Practical art activities help learners to practise and refine, fine and gross motor skills. Experiences are immersive and explore a wide variety of mediums.

​We offer endless learning opportunities through exploration, experience and experimentation. Projects include discovery of artists and movements from all over the world so that our students can have a diverse experience of different cultures and broaden their knowledge and views. At its heart, Art is intended to be a fun, personal form of communication and all experiences, processes and outcomes are valued and celebrated.
