ART & DESIGN (UNENDORSED AQA 4200)
This new specification is rich in content and offers students a diverse, challenging and meaningful learning experience. Art and Design offers opportunities for students to further develop their learning in higher education and into exciting creative career paths.
In Year 10 students will develop a range of skills through workshop style lessons. Students will experiment and develop skills using a range of media including drawing, painting, printing, photography, computer manipulated design, assemblage, art textiles and conceptual art forms.
Students work on three projects: Food and Drink, Portraits, and the Externally Set Task in Year 11. At the start of each project, in order to aid their research and understanding, students will be taken on trips to Borough Market, the Tate Modern and The National Portrait Gallery to view the annual BP Portrait Awards.
Students will be expected to purchase the basic equipment pack at the start of the GCSE course; this will ensure they are able to complete the coursework in school and at home. At the end of the coursework projects, students will learn how to mount and present their work.
The externally set task will require students to utilise their skills and knowledge from the course to independently select and develop a project and final outcome, which is produced in a ten hour controlled assessment time.
All practical work from Year 10 and Year 11 is assessed as part of the final exam grade. Students submit a portfolio of artwork which includes one extended coursework project.
Assessment:
Coursework is worth 60% of final grade - teacher assessed then externally moderated.
There is a 10 hour controlled test in spring term of Year 11 worth 40% of final grade - teacher assessed and externally moderated.
Grades 9 - 1 are available.
