Art and design remains a firm favourite for many primary school-age children.
In primary school, children are given opportunities to explore their ideas by experimenting, inventing and creating their own varied works of art using a range of materials.
They will learn how to draw, paint, sculpt and explore other art, craft and design techniques.

Another important aspect of the art and design curriculum is learning about how art has shaped our history and how it reflects it.

Art And Design In National Curriculum.

Early Years Foundation Stage-YEFS
Giving children opportunities to be imaginative, explore different materials and develop their ideas is an important part of the Early Years Foundation Stage, mainly within the 'expressive art and design' area of learning.
Children are encouraged to practise their handling, moving and control skills (for example, by painting or using clay). Materials should be accessible for children to develop and explore their ideas and to be imaginative.

Key stage 1 (Years 1 and 2)
The content of art and design teaching and learning is set out in the National Curriculum for primary schools. Pupils should be given opportunities to use a range of materials creatively to design and make products through drawing, painting and sculpture.
They explore different techniques in using colour, pattern, texture, line, shape, form and space.

Another important aspect of the art and design curriculum is learning about the work of a range of artists, craft makers and designers, describing the differences and similarities between different practices and disciplines, and making links to their own work.

Key stage 2 (Years 3 to 6)
The content of the art and design curriculum in Key Stage 2 builds on what children have learned in Key Stage 1.
Children should develop and improve their skills in drawing, painting and sculpture using a range of different materials. They are expected to create sketch books to record their learning and to use them to review and revisit ideas. They continue to learn about great artists, architects and designers in history.
