Art and Design (Graphics)

Course summary

Under the umbrella of 'Visual Arts', students will be able to follow one of the four specialisms that we currently offer (Fine Art, Photography, Tex4le Design or Graphic Communica4on). Each endorsement will develop on the founda4ons learned at GCSE level but will require students to delve deeper into the subject at a more advanced level and standard. Although the four endorsements are different qualifica4ons, they will be taught together by our specialist teaching team. In addition, all Visual Arts students will be taught about the History of Art in order to help develop a deeper appreciation and understanding of the context of the subject and how it has developed over the centuries. Choosing to follow one of the Visual Arts endorsements at A Level will fully prepare students to progress onto a Foundation course at FE or alterna4vely a specialist degree course at university.
