Art and Design (Photography)

Assessment

Component One (Personal Investigation) is an in depth study of a topic of your choice. You will use existing photographers to develop your knowledge and then emulate their work through your own interpretations and style. This is worth 60% of the A Level. From the 1st February of Year 13, titles are released by Eduqas for the Component Two: Externally Set Assignment (worth 40% of the A Level). You then have a preparatory study period in which you choose your title and prepare your response in the form of critical, theoretical and practical work. You then have a 15-hour period of sustained work in which to realise your production, linking your planning to your outcomes.
