Graphic Communication

Assessment

The Graphic Communication A-Level is comprised of 2 main components. Component 1 Personal Investigation - 60% of final grade. Component 2 Externally Set Assignment - 40% of final grade. The personal investigation is fully coursework based and the externally set assignment, released in the February of year 2, is partial coursework that we call the ‘preparation’ and then a final exam. This consists of a 15-hour controlled assignment where students spend 5 hours, each day, for 3 days, completing their final piece under exam conditions.
