    The Natural World and Environment: Safari Print Project 

     

     

    Students learn about different types of patterns, dying techniques and how to design original prints to create a tote bag design based on the theme of Safari, informed by their Artist research and moodboards. Students will be assessed on each of the main assessment objectives covered across the project (research, design skills, final outcome) and their application of the key skills taught.  

Learning Impact

The development of knowledge and skills across the year 7 curriculum gives our students a great basis for creating dynamic and successful textile projects, enhancing their confidence and ability to communicate and realise their own ideas in a range of textile media. 
 
Student’s working at grades for Textile Design are taken from an average of the main assessment objectives covered across the project (research, design skills, final outcome) and their application of the skills taught.  
 
Students’ achievements and progress against these main assessment objectives, will be corresponded to parents through termly data and yearly written reports.
