In Year 12, the course is structured to develop a variety of skills in both digital design and photography. In Year 13, you will specialise and develop one personal and in-depth body of work. Students are encouraged to develop their skills in research, problem solving, collaboration, independent thinking, professionalism and marketing. Students will also understand the potential of self-employment and creative entrepreneurship. Students could expect to continue into professions such as marketing and communications, graphic design, digital media production, games design, photography, art-working or retouching, and more. The Visual Arts department has professional standard spaces with Apple Macs, drawing tablets, a photography studio, DSLR cameras and other equipment for student use. It also has a wide variety of other arts-based specialist equipment to encourage students to explore multidisciplinary techniques. We operate an ‘open door’ policy to allow students to use the equipment and studio spaces independently outside of lessons. See portfolio guidance HERE.
