Art and Design Objectives KS1/2

It is incredibly difficult to ‘draw a line’ between many of the objectives set out in the National Curriculum for Art & Design and real life jobs. More typically, there are small elements from each of these objectives in a wide range of roles.

Objectives KS1
Use a range of materials creatively to design and make products
Use drawing, painting and sculpture to develop and share their ideas, experiences
and imagination
Develop a wide range of art and design techniques in using colour, pattern, texture,
line, shape, form and space
Learn about the work of a range of artists, craft makers and designers, describing the
differences and similarities between different practices and disciplines, and making
links to their own work
Objectives KS2
Create sketch books to record their observations and use them to review and revisit
ideas
Improve their mastery of art and design techniques, including drawing, painting and
sculpture with a range of materials [for example, pencil, charcoal, paint, clay]
Learn about great artists, architects and designers in history
