Being a Fine Art student provides you with a unique and exciting opportunity to explore, discover and develop highly personal and creative ideas in response to the world around you. This course will introduce you to a broad variety of materials, techniques and processes. You will engage with extensive research, experimentation and development work to enable you to make final outcomes that successfully combine skill, aesthetics and concept.
At least five GCSEs at Grade 4 or above all from the core subjects as well as Grade 5 or a MERIT/DISTINCTION at BTEC Level 2 in an Art or Design subject. If you have not studied a creative visual course at GCSE, entry may also be made via portfolio/interview. You have the option of showing us the work you have done or there is a set project which you can undertake so that we can see your skills and gauge your enthusiasm to study this course.
Through a combination of coursework (60%) and exam work (40%). You will generate sketchbook work, final outcomes and an extended written study (minimum 1,000 words). You will receive regular written and verbal feedback, that corresponds with the assessment criteria to help you identify strengths and areas to improve. Both the Personal Investigation coursework and the Externally Set Assignment exam are internally assessed and externally moderated.
