Course summary

The A Level Art course has been designed to give students the opportunity to generate and develop ideas, research primary and contextual sources and record practical and written observations. Students will experiment with media and processes and be expected to refine their creative ideas. The course incorporates two major elements: supporting studies and practical work for the A Level examination which will comprise a portfolio of development work and outcomes based on ideas developed from personal starting points. Students have to manage their own time very effectively, working independently with guidance from teachers. It is essential that students review their progress at appropriate points in the creation of their work, developing their evaluative skills and ability to reflect upon their own progress. Each component aims to develop students’ ability to generate and develop ideas for their own practical work and build their contextual understanding, from either a selfselected or teacher negotiated focus
