The main purpose of any course in photography and design is to develop your ability to appreciate the visual world, respond in a personal and creative way and perhaps even contribute for the benefit of everyone. The skills you will develop will be varied. Among them, you will develop a working knowledge of materials, practices and technology within photography. You will develop the skills to interpret and convey your ideas and feelings using photography and design. You will develop your imaginative and creative powers and your experimental, analytical and documenting skills. You will also develop a specialist vocabulary and the knowledge and understanding of the place of photography and design in history and in contemporary society. There are many careers in photography, art, craft and design. Most of these require further study at an art school, further education college or university. If you are unsure about whether to make a career of the subject, the best thing to do is to speak to your teacher who will know about the courses on offer in your area or elsewhere. Who is the course for? • Students who wish to undertake further studies in photography and design, usually at art college or further education college • Students who are looking to take up careers for which a photography background is relevant. These might include advertising, publishing, architecture, museums, theatre, gallery work, journalism etc. • Students who have an interest in and aptitude for the subject, but who do not intend to take the subject beyond A Level and will use the grades as UCAS entry points for other courses
