You will gain both technical, ICT and analytical skills that will enrich your appreciation of the arts and the way you see the world.

No drawing (or art) skills would be needed to pass the course, and pupils would not need any prior photography experience.

What this level means

The A-level-equivalent step, and what universities and employers ask for.
