curriculum intent statement

At Loseley Fields, our aim is to provide a fully rounded, creative and immersive curriculum. Strengthening the children’s imagination and creativity is at the heart of our journey and our all-inclusive art curriculum is key to this. The opportunity for children to express themselves is key to their well-being, progression and happiness at primary school and is something that we want all children to have an exciting experience of. As stated in Ofsted’s Research review series report: Art and Design Published 22 February 2023: ‘The study of art enables pupils to understand, appreciate and contribute to a dimension of life that taps into and expresses human innovation, imagination and thought.’

The staff at Loseley Fields work tirelessly to plan and create exciting and engaging art lessons, that often include overt links to other areas of our curriculum. Children will be asked to use their artistic and creative skills in many forms and in most lessons: Mondrian in maths, Rembrandt in R.E, Banksy in PSHE, we aim to immerse our children in a wide range of art: modern, classical and traditional. We also offer a wide range of extra-curricular activities, at both lunchtimes and after school, that stimulate these qualities in our students, including art club, craft club and crochet club.
