The Big Landscape for the art, craft & design curriculum
Use the Big Landscape as you plan, develop and review, so you can build a fit-for-purpose, 21st-century curriculum with your learners and community at its heart.
The Big Landscape maps the breadth and scope of our subject, using three big questions to guide you – What? Why? How?

Asking ‘what’ will determine the concepts and content driving each lesson, project and your overarching curriculum.
Ask what:
do you want learners to know, understand and be able to do?
knowledge, concepts, skills, techniques or processes do you include?
is the time frame over which this will be taught?
Is the regional, national curriculum? are the targets and learning objectives?
do you need to include to ensure breadth and balance?
(If applicable) are the exam board requirements to be considered?
