Course summary

The fundamental essence of the course is creativity and originality, which is an essential element in careers such as architecture, graphic design, illustration, film production design, animation, interior design, and fine art. For those not wishing to pursue Art at university, an A Level in Fine Art illustrates a creative mind, which is an important aspect in all areas of academic study. The course is based on a single project - the Personal Investigation. and an exam project - The Externally Set Task.
