Course summary

Graphics is a part of our daily life. From humble things like sweet wrappers to huge things like billboards to your favourite T-shirt. Graphics inform, persuade, organise, stimulate, locate, identify and provide pleasure. You must be interested in the subject and conduct contextual analyses of related artefacts, research practitioners and processes. A willingness to work consistently and independently with sketchbooks and photography outside of lesson times would aid enjoyment of the course.

Entry requirements

4 in English Language 5 in an Art/Design subject if taken at GCSE (otherwise a portfolio of work)

How you'll be assessed

In lessons you can expect a range of approaches to teaching and learning. This includes teacher-led and online tutorials, individual / group work and practical investigation. Use of sketchbooks for the presentation of work is utilised together with the exploitation of online research, organisation and research tools such as Pinterest and YouTube.
