This is a creative course encouraging students to develop their 2D and 3D skills as practising artists. Year 1 involves a variety of projects which draw on a range of materials and offer a chance to develop many different styles. All art students build a portfolio of work which will be presented at the end of the academic year. As well as getting the opportunity to work individually on practical projects you will learn from direct teaching peer learning presentations trips reflective reading and writing and visits from professional practitioners working in the creative sector. All art students are encouraged to experiment and will have the opportunity to use a wide range of materials including ceramics sculpture print-making photography design and many others. Recording images and representing the world around you are at the heart of the projects. During your time on the course you will gain a strong understanding of the genres and styles in the history of art which underpin your own work. Students choose art for a variety of reasons. Students can gain entry onto highly selective Undergraduate Degree programmes in Art Architecture Fashion Graphic Design Textiles Sculpture Computer Game Design and many other routes. In addition many students choose to progress to an Art Foundation Course. As a complementary area of study to our other A level subjects art presents opportunities to develop lifelong skills in analysis research interpretation and creative execution.
