A-level Art and Design: Site Joseph Wright Centre

Course Content: The Advanced GCE in Art and Design consists of two components, both teacher assessed and externally moderated. Learners study at least two separate disciplines in Component 1, with the option to specialise in Component 2 - producing work in one or more disciplines. How will I be assessed? Work is continually assessed and you will discuss and evaluate your own work. Component 1: Personal Investigation: Internally set, assessed by the teacher and externally moderated: 60% of the total qualification Component 2: Externally Set Assignment: Externally set, assessed by the teacher and externally moderated: 40% of the total qualification Are there any additional costs or specialist equipment required? A small studio fee of £25 will be required for this subject. This covers the cost of essential course materials and resources. However, if you wish to explore additional specialist materials or non-traditional materials that are not covered within the course, you will be responsible for sourcing and providing such materials. You will also need to make a contribution towards compulsory visits to London - or other - galleries to undertake essential research. What can I do after this course? Following successful completion of this Advanced Level course, it is expected that learners will have achieved the in-depth knowledge, understanding and skills in art and design that will aid their progression to foundation and degree-related study.
