Assessment

Year 12 Structured taught units of work to produce a series of sketchbooks and final pieces covering the four assessment objectives. Students will have the opportunity to experiment and develop their interests in the subject. This leads students towards establishing confidence for the full A Level in Year 13. Year 13 Unit 1: Personal Investigation - students develop their interests and produce a sketchbook and final pieces of work covering four assessment objectives. There is also a written research project of up to 3000 words that runs alongside the practical aspect of the course. Unit 2: Externally set assignment - students respond to a set question for a 15-hour exam after a period of research and investigation. Students produce a sketchbook and final pieces of work covering the four assessment objectives.
