A Level Graphic Design will provide you with a broad introduction to traditional art-based and digital design processes. You will earn about the historical and contemporary influences within the design industry. Over the course, you will be set themed assignments and live briefs to help you build a creative and professional portfolio of illustration and graphic design. You will be offered the opportunity to visit national and international places of interest for research purposes.
As a minimum, you will need (or equivalent to); GCSE Mathematics grade 4 GCSE English Language or Literature grade 4 plus three more GCSEs at grade 4. Ideally, you will have studied a creative subject at GCSE, such as Graphic Design, but this is not essential.
With the exception of a 15-hour exam, all work is practical and coursework based. All work is assessed once projects have been submitted for a given deadline, with constructive and detailed feedback being provided to assist with the improvement of coursework and the further refinement of skills.
