Nonsuch Primary School

The purpose of teaching Art at Nonsuch Primary is to engage, inspire and challenge pupils, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to experiment, invent and create their own works of art, craft and design. As pupils progress, they can think critically and develop a rigorous understanding of art and design. Nonsuch children know how both art and design reflect and shape our history and contribute to the culture, creativity and wealth of our nation.

We are pleased to announce that we have just started the journey to achieving the Arts Mark.  The topic is called Me: the Artist and Maker and will focus on textiles with an element of printing. The work will tie in with what the eco-warriors already do and will focus on skills progression for both children and staff.

Arts Mark: 7 principles 

1. Striving for excellence and innovation 
2. Being authentic 
3. Being exciting, inspiring and engaging 
4. Ensuring a positive and inclusive approach 
5. Actively involving children and young people

7. Developing ownership and belonging
