The National Curriculum in Practice | The QCA has developed a new website. The site is designed primarily for teachers and senior managers working in schools
This website uses pupils' work and case study materials to show what the National Curriculum in Art and Design looks like in practice.
The examples show the standard of pupils' work at different ages and key stages as well as how the programmes of study translate into real activities. These examples come from different pupils, contexts and schools.
| | They include:
- pupils' art and design in different media, including two and three dimensions
- sequences of work leading to one or more final outcomes
- selected pages from sketchbooks and visual journals
- responses to structured tasks and to more open-ended investigations
- individual and collaborative work.
| | | For each piece of work there are:
- Activity objectives: these set out the purpose, teaching and learning objectives of the work.
- Activity descriptions: this provides details of what the pupil actually did. It also describes the context, the level of support provided and the extent to which the activity was structured.
- Commentary: this explains why the piece of work shows a pupil's performance in relation to a particular level description; and/or a good example of the programme of study in practice.
