Students have 8 weeks to prepare for their external 10-hour exam.

Workshop based lessons provide students with access to a variety of ideas, artists, materials, processes and techniques in the context of the exam questions.

With teacher guidance, students select techniques which reflect their strengths to produce individual and independent outcomes.

A trip facilitates artist research and informs student ideas/outcomes and is therefore essential to learning.
