Spiritual
Art supports spiritual development by introducing them to the work of great Artists and experiencing wonder and awe at the achievements of these great works of art. They also experience great admiration and respect for their peers’ work when they see the level of achievement and progress. Pupils understand that this standard of work does not happen immediately but requires perseverance, a Christian value encompassed in our school ethos.
Moral
Art supports moral development by encouraging mutual respect and the consideration for others’ work. Pupils are encouraged to show compassion when assessing the work of others by understanding how their comments can build up or destroy another’s self- belief.
Social
Children often work collaboratively in Art lessons requiring cooperation and communication linking to the values of kindness and respect. Art ambassadors are requested to take on roles that involve respect and trust from others and to inspire peers.
Cultural
Art supports cultural development by enabling children to study art involving various cultures and civilizations from around the world. They lead to a greater understanding of different ways of life and a respect for cultures that are very different from our own and how they can enrich our own lives. The children also have the opportunity to explore issues raised by artists which concerns ethical issues such as war and violence.
