Art and Design

Course summary

A Level Art, Craft and Design is structured to engage students both intellectually and creatively. The students are given the confidence to be open-minded and follow many diverse lines of personal enquiry, allowing them to develop high levels of self motivation through the fostering of independent working practice. Students will be able to produce practical work that embraces a variety of contexts, from the academic through to the ephemeral and experimental. Students are encouraged to be open to new means and ways of working and there is a strong emphasis placed upon exploration, and experimentation. This is then rigorously documented within their artistic journals. Our ethos is to enable students to develop skill and confidence in several media and in both two and three dimensions.
