Creative Arts

Curriculum Intent

At Reintegreat, the teaching of Creative Art is designed to inspire, challenge, and enable every student to develop their creative potential. Through a range of exciting projects, students enhance their technical skills, build confidence in their artistic abilities, and discover new ways to express themselves.

​

Each project at Key Stage 3 has a motivating starting point, carefully chosen to capture students’ interests. They are provided with a rich variety of visual materials and are encouraged to take inspiration from the work of established artists, designers, and craftspeople as they develop their own creative responses.

​

Students are given the opportunity to:

​

  • Explore and experiment with a wide variety of artistic materials, tools, and processes.

  • Develop, refine, and evaluate their ideas throughout each project.

  • Produce a personal and meaningful final outcome that reflects both skill and creativity.
     

Our approach to Creative Art reflects the Reintegreat REACH values:
 

  • Resilience – learning to persevere when experimenting with new materials and techniques.

  • Excellence – striving to achieve high-quality artistic outcomes.

  • Ambition and Dreams – encouraging students to pursue their creative passions and see the potential of art in their futures.
     

We also prepare students for the wider world by linking projects to careers in the creative industries, both locally and globally. We highlight the importance of creativity in areas such as design, digital media, architecture, advertising, and fine art, while promoting the wide range of creative Post-16 courses available to them.
