Art and Design (Fine Art)

Course summary

The A level course encourages pupils to develop skills, creativity, imagination, and independence based on personal experience, taught skills and critical understanding. Pupils show this through their responses to a range of stimuli. Fine Art at Oundle is a vibrant and exciting subject with a reputation for diverse and mature work. The Art course in the Sixth Form is exciting and flexible. It progresses naturally from the philosophies and approaches adopted at GCSE. We encourage and expect pupils to pursue personal paths. There are considerable opportunities open to them in terms of the range and scale of the work they may undertake. Art is a subject that encourages individuals to be creative, reflective, communicative and appreciative of the world around them. Pupils undertake analytical drawing from the model throughout the course.
