SEND in THE ARTS
Ambition- What are we aiming for children with SEND to achieve in this subject?
- Children with SEND should have an enjoyment in learning more about Art
- Children with SEND should feel empowered to explore their identity in a community with people who have different talents
- Children with SEND should feel supported in expressing themselves through Art especially since many students with SEND seem to thrive in STEAM subjects
Access- What amendments are made to the subject in order to help children with SEND to achieve?
- SEND children are supported with the aid of visuals as every lesson is supported by a video with instructions and the end result
- SEND children are supported with examples of work from other artists
- SEND children are supported with the necessary scaffolds as every lesson follows a small steps process to help them connect their skills and knowledge with their previous learning appropriately
- SEND children have more space to thrive since most lessons provide them with opportunities to cover their multi-sensory needs
