What the college says
Fine Art A-Level is linear two year A-level. In Year 12 students will develop a range of skills through workshops and investigations of contextual sources. They complete a full project and final piece which will be assessed at the end of Year 12. They will then complete two units in A2 which be assessed for their final A-level qualification on a 60/40 split, a personal investigation and a controlled assessment unit. You will study the skills of drawing and painting as well as visually expressing your ideas in a range of media. You will study contextual sources including a wide range of artists and use these to influence and develop your own personal investigation. If you enjoy working on thematic projects and exploring a range of art materials, this course is likely to appeal to you. You will also have the opportunity to study figure drawing. If you have followed the GCSE Drawing & Painting, Art and Design Art courses, this course is appropriate for you.
