Students wishing to study Photography will take the AQA A level Art (Photography). Students will be introduced to a variety of experiences that explore a range of photographic media, techniques and processes. They will be taught both traditional and new technologies and will produce practical and critical/contextual work in different areas of study. Example areas: portraiture, landscape photography, still life photography, documentary photography, photojournalism, fashion photography and experimental imagery.
The pre-requisite for entry on the A level course is a GCSE in Art and Design or Photography at level 7,8 or 9. However, students who have not taken an Arts GCSE may be admitted to the course if they can demonstrate creativity and visual awareness. This course combines well with most other A levels, although students will need to be aware that the course requires a lot of time and dedication.
Component 1 Personal investigation - 60 % Component 2 Externally set assignment - 40%
