Art
At Epsom Primary and Nursery School, we believe that art in its many forms allows the children to develop a greater understanding of themselves and the world around them.
Our pupils make connections through a variety of rich experiences hence they develop a love of learning and engage in this lifelong journey. Children at EPS are supported and motivated to grow in confidence with exploring safely, observing effectively and creating successfully. We believe that through expanding our pupil’s knowledge and understanding of famous artists and artistic techniques, we can help each child to develop their own artistic style, encouraging independence and individuality. Artists, designers and craft makers are carefully selected to ensure that our diverse community is reflected within the Art and Design Curriculum.
All children at EPS learn to express themselves fully in Art and Design, ensuring that they become resilient, confident artists that move into secondary school with a wealth of creative knowledge, experience and the ability to work collaboratively within group projects. We use Sketchbooks from Year 2 to develop critical thinking skills as well as tracking progress of the development of both thinking and the mastery of techniques.
At Epsom Primary and Nursery School, every individual is valued for who they are and what they contribute to the school. Through a passion for learning rooted in mutual respect and warm, nurturing relationships, our school community provides a platform for all to succeed and achieve in Art and Design.
