Art and Design (Photography)

Assessment

We offer AQA A Level Photography, assessed as 60% coursework and 40% exam. Coursework is created over both Year 12 and Year 13, with projects from both years entered for the full A-Level. This enables students to develop the subject knowledge and skills required at this level. The exam starts in February of Year 13 with a preparatory time of roughly 8 weeks before a 15-hour practical exam spread over 3 days. The preparation time is for research, Photography shoots, and the design of an outcome to be created within the controlled time.
