Why study Art and Design? It develops creativity, imagination, practical and intellectual skills. The creative industries are growing rapidly: Advertising, Film and Video, Architecture, Computer and Video games, Design, Designer Fashion, to name a few. The skills developed in art are of practical use in many careers and a source of pleasure in their own right. What is Fine Art? Fine art is work produced as an outcome of the students’ personal experience, rather than being created exclusively for a practical function or a tightly prescribed brief. Students learn to use a wide range of materials and techniques including alternative media (non-traditional media, such as mixed media, installation, site-specific work, assemblage & digital media), painting and drawing, printmaking, sculpture, ceramics and textiles. Many extra-curricular activities are organized: visiting artists, workshops, life drawing, gallery visits & art events.
Grade 6 or above in Art and Design or a Merit in BTEC Art, and a Grade 4 in English Language. Students need to gain approval from the subject leader before being enrolled onto the course.
