This course will enable you to develop the creative and intellectual skills for imaginative growth and to access the vast array of art and design further study and careers. It is an excellent complement to many other areas of study, as it teaches you to be analytical, to solve problems creatively and to gain a cultural awareness. The art and design specification encompasses a wide range of art and design based disciplines, though this course is firmly rooted in core fine art traditions. Artwork can be painted, drawn, photographic, mixed media, textiles or graphic media. This flexible course enables students to continue to make a broad range of art, or specialise in any of the named media and more, dependent on host school resources.
Standard entry requirement to our Consortium is five Grade 9 – 4 GCSEs or equivalent, including a grade 4 or above in both Maths and English. Most subjects will have additional entry requirements and all have a recommended GCSE Average Points Score (APS) as detailed in the Entry Requirements table. 5 or above at GCSE. APS: 3.75
