Teachers use sketchbooks to evidence the children's work. These are a working document, which should be individual to the child. Pupils are given opportunities to evaluate their work and teachers encourage the children to explore their own ideas, thoughts and opinions through the development of their sketchbooks. Teachers assess the children through the development of their sketchbooks and their final piece of work for each unit. They will make continuing assessments throughout their art journey over the half term through photos and short written observations. The children will receive an appropriate result at the end of each half term and this is recorded on the school database where the data is collated.
Art at St Gregory's provides an artist rich curriculum, where children can gain inspiration from artists, both local and well known. We showcase children's work through yearly Art Gallery's, where we invite parents to view our children's art inspired by a class artist.
