Trainee and beginning teachers often find it hard to plan for and teach good art lessons as there is little guidance on subject knowledge and outstanding practice.

This key text will provide primary trainee teachers with subject knowledge, expert advice, and guidance along with practical solutions that are necessary to offer children the best possible experiences in art, craft, and design to ensure that they have access to a broad and balanced curriculum. Through guidance and support, it will enable them to develop an understanding of the principles and values that underpin high standards and high expectations, and show good progress in the subject.

This book is a well written easily understood book that will assist both the specialist and non specialist improve their practice and understanding of art and design in the classroom. Some lovely examples are included to illustrate concepts, while the last section deals with the cross curricular nature of the subject.
