Art and Design (Fine Art)

Course summary

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.
