Art and Design Technology

Art and Design

As artists, our children will be challenged and inspired to imagine, invent, design and create their own works of art through a wide range of media and techniques.  Fuelled by curiosity, our children develop techniques using colour, pattern, texture, line, shape, form and space.  Alongside this, our children will deepen their knowledge of famous artists as well as local artists, who have shaped and contribute to our artistic culture and heritage on a local, national and global scale.

Design Technology

At St Joseph’s our children are empowered to become inquisitive, curious learners.  Within our design and technology curriculum they will become critical thinkers as they explore the impact of Design Technology on everyday life and the wider world.  They will research plan, design, make and evaluate products that solve real life problems within different contexts considering their needs and those of others.
