Pupils should be taught: - to create sketch books to record their observations and use them to review and revisit ideas, and collect visual material to help them to develop their ideas - to improve their mastery of techniques, such as drawing, painting and sculpture with materials (e.g. pencil, charcoal, paint, clay) - about the greatest artists, architects and designers in history. ![Enfield Academy of New Waltham](https://files.schudio.com/enfield-academy-of-new-waltham-2/images/logo/Enfield-Logo.png) ### Enfield Academy of New Waltham Enfield Avenue New Waltham NE Lincs DN36 4RB 01472 321434 ### Social Media - [Facebook](https://www.facebook.com/EnfieldAcademyofNewWaltham/) - [X](https://twitter.com/enfield_academy) © Copyright 2026 Enfield Academy of New Waltham School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://enfieldacademy.co.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
