GCE A Level in Art and Design
at Wickersley School and Sports College, Rotherham · college
What the college says
This course enables students to confidently develop their skill level with a range of 2D materials, for example, printmaking, drawing, painting and mixed media. The course the students follow enables them to produce work conceptually and at a higher skill level. With no limit to scale or exploration of different materials, we offer tailored advice and critiques to suit individual needs and interests. Students develop a mature understanding of how a project conforms and how to carefully resource for their own projects. This then enables students to work independently and to create and realise their intentions in readiness for the next or higher level of study.
