G.C.S.E. and A-Level coursework support

At GCSE and A-Level, the process of creating art is just as important as the product. During the sessions, we will explore a range of materials, proesses and techniques and will guide students towards achieving that A* make-over for their coursework. We will analyse art works from a variety of times and cultures and demonstrate how the visual elements are used for different purposes to convey a range of ideas, meanings and feelings. We encourage pupils to be versatile in their choice of materials and help them to show control in their use of media.

All materials supplied.

Ages 12 - 18
