The A level Art course offers possibilities in drawing, painting, print-making, sculpture, lens-based media and contextual and critical studies, encouraging you to explore and refine core disciplines and become an independent, confident and articulate visual communicator. Your abilities to master practical techniques, in combination with your broadening yet deepening conceptual, contextual knowledge will reflect your success on the course. During the course you will have the opportunity to undertake a 'Personal Investigation' including Supporting Studies and Practical Work in which you will demonstrate your skills in two or more Making disciplines. You will negotiate your theme with your Art Tutor, choosing carefully to reflect your emerging skills and integral ability. In addition you will be required to write a Personal Study at A level of a minimum of 1000 words giving a value of 60% to your first unit of work at A-Level. The second unit, Component 2, is an 'Externally Set Assignment' worth 40% and culminates in a fifteen-hour exam based on the study and exploration of a theme set by the exam board.
