This course encourages an adventurous and inquiring approach to Art and Design. If you enjoy working creatively and have a flair for drawing, painting, sculpture, printmaking, mixed-media, installation, moving image (video, film, animation) and photography you will find the course very fulfilling. The fine art course will enable you to be as individual as you are. You will be continually encouraged to be an original and creative thinker, to challenge yourself, push boundaries and realise your potential as a visual practitioner. Art offers a distinctive way of learning, where seeing, thinking and making are combined in a powerful form of visual and tactile communication. You will be encouraged to be creative, to enquire and question, and to make connections and synthesise ideas. To imagine a world where art and creativity has not had an impact upon our society is not worth thinking about. How will your creativity impact upon future lives?
The qualification is made up of 2 components. Personal Investigation - 60%: Practical and written investigation. Externally set assignment - 40%: 8 weeks preparatory work followed by a 15 hour practical exam. All components are marked by the school and moderated by AQA.
