At Iver Village Junior School, we believe that Art and Design play a crucial role in nurturing our students' creativity and self-expression. Through the study of great artists, architects, and designers throughout history, we aim to inspire our pupils to develop their own artistic voices and perspectives.
Art and Design are essential components of our curriculum, providing students with opportunities to explore, create, and communicate visually. By engaging in artistic practices, students develop critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and a deeper appreciation for the world around them. We aim to impart knowledge of various artistic techniques and styles, fostering a lifelong love for the arts.
In line with our school motto, "Believe, Achieve, Succeed together," our Art and Design curriculum encourages collaboration, perseverance, and celebration of individual talents. We believe that through creative expression, students can achieve personal growth, academic success, and a sense of belonging within our school community.
