Art & Design – Links with British Values and Personal Development

At St Mary’s C of E Primary, our Art & Design curriculum is a powerful vehicle for promoting British Values and supporting pupils’ personal development. Through a rich, inclusive, and reflective programme of learning, children explore their own identity, understand diverse perspectives, and develop key character skills that prepare them to be responsible, respectful citizens.

Through our Art & Design curriculum at St Mary’s, we not only nurture creativity and skill but also develop character, empathy, cultural awareness, and confidence. Pupils are given the tools and opportunities to express themselves, engage with their community, and grow into thoughtful, open-minded individuals.
