At Charing CEP School, our Art and Design curriculum helps to develop creativity and stimulate children’s imagination. It provides visual, tactile and sensory experiences and a special way of understanding and responding to the world. Our curriculum enables children of all abilities to communicate what they see, feel and think through the use of colour, texture, form, pattern and different materials and processes. As a school we use the Kapow Scheme of work to support our Art and Design lessons. The Art and Design curriculum followed at Charing is a comprehensive curriculum coverage and addresses topics in great depth.
