The rationale for the A- level Art and Design course in Photography is: ' To seek an expressive and/or interpretative artistic response to the visual world, which is produced with the aid of lens-based media and may be manipulated by digital technology. We aim to provide an exciting course that offers opportunities to work with traditional and contemporary photographic techniques. The use of new media, traditional techniques and digital manipulation will form an integral part of your studies. Gallery visits and links with recognised artists will inform outcomes and support personal development. You will incorporate your own interests and strengths to inform and develop individual outcomes. It is our mission to produce enquiring and creative individuals who look at life from their own perspectives.
