Intent - How we have planned our Community Event Performances.
An outstanding education system should enable children to develop into well-rounded individuals who are fully equipped with the skills needed to live happy and successful lives. Just as learning does not take place in a vacuum neither should teaching. The best practice in schools is through a curriculum that is broad, balanced and relevant in order to engage and motivate children to succeed. Within education, the arts incorporate the five areas of Dance, Drama, Media, Music and Visual Arts. Each have specific processes, skill bases and disciplines that they draw on. These different arts areas have some similar themes, and whilst approaches may vary slightly, they all have skills that can be inherently learnt, experienced or devised with children learning to express ideas and emotions through voice, movement, actions and different expressive forms.
