Art history is one of the most relevant and influential subjects on offer in the Sixth Form. The development of visual literacy and cultural understanding of your own history and that of others is a vital stepping stone into the multi-cultural, image-conscious world in which we live. In Art History, you will examine architecture and artefacts from across the globe, exploring the contextual, political and stylistic influences and impacts of key works.
All students wishing to study in the Sixth Form at St Catherine’s are expected to have achieved six GCSEs in grades 6-9, including a grade 4 in Maths and English. They generally gain a grade of 7 in the subjects they wish to study at A Level; however, if a student is close to this level and shows aptitude and willingness in other ways, entry can be discussed with the Headmistress.
Paper 1: Visual Analysis and Themes (3 hours, 50%) Paper 2: Periods (3 hours, 50%)
