Studying Photography in the Sixth Form is a great opportunity to continue with a creative and expressive examination option. You will encounter many new processes and approaches including black and white photography and digital imagery. You are seen as an individual with your own talents and you will be encouraged to follow your own path. You will be expected to develop your knowledge and understanding of a range of dark room processes, techniques and the use of cameras. You will also gain experience in digital image manipulation through the use of Photoshop and the iPad. You will have your own working space allocated to you in our exclusive Sixth Form Studio and you can use this space whenever you wish (as long as a teacher is in the building). Photography encourages independent learning and critical thinking. It involves learning through practical work and includes the study of photographers and artists, with regular visits to galleries and exhibitions.
It is useful to have taken Art and Design at GCSE, but is not essential.
