This is a subject offer that extends and builds on the KS4 curriculum, students can take the fine art A Level regardless of their creative GCSE choice. This course further nurtures students in developing their critical and technical abilities and continues to embed ideals based in exploration and risk taking to support students in becoming confident critical and creative practitioners. The focus on the seven formal elements continues but delves deeper into understanding how all creative practice, from painting to set design to fashion is all constructed using the formal elements to communicate ideas and manipulate viewer response. The broad foundation built through KS3 and 4 supports students when starting this course, but the focus is to now deepen knowledge through material investigations. To fully support reflective learners and embed the need for criticality in their practice, in-depth critical analysis becomes an integral aspect of this course.
• A minimum of seven grade 5s in full course GCSE subjects. No vocational subjects allowed. • English Language grade 5 • At least a grade 6 at GCSE • Must bring a portfolio to course discussion meeting.
The course is again underpinned by the assessment objectives: AO1- developing ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources A02 – Explore and select appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes AO3 - Record ideas observations and insights relevant to intentions AO4 – presenting a personal and meaningful response.
