Studying Fine Art at A Level is very rewarding and students will have the opportunity to explore their own ideas and develop exciting outcomes. It is both an academic and creative subject. Students will need to have the ability to carry out extensive research, experiment, develop ideas and present well informed concepts and outcomes. Our A Level in Fine Art has been designed to ensure that students develop practical artistic skills and abilities and study Art and Design and its various contexts. So, in addition to making artefacts, students will be encouraged to reflect on their own work and the work of others to develop aesthetic understanding and critical judgement. Students will also develop intellectual, imaginative, creative and intuitive powers, as well as investigative, analytical, experimental, practical, technical and expressive skills.
Level 6/7 or above in Art GCSE. Students need to be organised, focused and passionate about Art with excellent drawing and visual language skills. They must be prepared to take risks and experiment with processes and ideas. They are expected to show creativity and imagination, be able to generate original concepts and develop outcomes. They should show they can work independently and are willing to act on feedback.
Personal Investigation & Practical Work In Year 13, students complete a personal investigation and a written essay that explores their concept. This research essay supports students’ practical work and allows them to demonstrate a deeper understanding of their themes and influences. 60% of final marks. Externally-set Assignment Students are expected to respond to an externally set theme and suggested starting points. Students have from 1st February until the commencement of the final 15-hour period of sustained focus to develop preparatory studies.
