Year 12 Term 1 & 2: Induction period of foundation skills workshops to broaden your creative horizons and introduce you to new materials and processes. Year 12 Term 3 Component 1: Personal Investigation worth 60%. This concludes by 1st February in Year 13. You will unlock your intuitive powers through debating the power of Artists’ work, while experimenting with a breadth of materials to develop your own recognisable style. Aiming high will enable you to produce a body of work rather than one single piece. You will curate an exhibition of your outcomes in the @RC Gallery for the end of year show and present your journey to an audience of peers, family and friends. Your Teacher and peers will provide extended feedback and portfolio advice throughout this unit. This component includes a personal study essay of 1000 words minimum. Component 2: Externally Set Assignment worth 40%. This starts 1st February and concludes early May. You will produce a second portfolio in response to a stimulus which is set by the exam board. Previous titles have included elements, identity, relationships and journey. Starting points for this project tend to be open ended to encourage lateral thinking and allow for individual development of ideas and a breadth of outcomes. Given a broad theme as a starting point, you are required to prepare your ideas, intentions and a final response. You will produce your final outcome under exam conditions in fifteen hours. This will be completed over three days in the Art classroom.
