As an introduction to GCSE Art and Design, students are shown how to work in a range of materials and use different processes (AO2 GCSE assessment criteria). Throughout the course, students learn and practise techniques across a variety of artistic disciplines including drawing, textiles, sculpture and printmaking, whilst also being introduced to the work of both traditional and contemporary artists.

This year work has been based on the theme of 'natural / man-made', a broad topic which allows for all interests and areas of study.
