Assessment

The A Level syllabus is made up of two separate modules: ● A Personal Creative Enquiry (60% of qualification). ● Externally Set Assignment (40% of qualification). The Personal Study is made up of two integrated constituent parts: ● A critical, practical and theoretical project/portfolio with outcomes based on themes and subject matter that has personal significance. ● A written element of 1000 words minimum extended writing, which will contain images and texts and relate to the practical and theoretical work. Externally Set Assignment also consists of two parts: ● Supporting studies/preparatory work. ● 15 hours of sustained focus work; the resolution of the learner’s ideas from the preparatory work. Using the assessment objectives, the preparatory studies and sustained focus work will be assessed together, in the first instance by your teacher, and then also by an external moderator.
