GCSE and A-Level exhibitions

The GCSE and A-Level exhibitions were a huge success, with parents, students and staff visiting the Private View, and commenting on the high standard of work on display.

Well done to all of our Artists!

Identity Portraits

Year 10 charcoal portraits

The Year 10 Art students are starting to master using chalk and charocal to produce high quality portraits. These mediums are sometimes difficult to mainpulate on a small scale, given the transient nature of the movment involved and in the application. Well done so far- keep going and taking the risks to develop these even further.

A snapshot of work from the examinations

GCSE and A-Level examinations are fast approaching...

A few images of work in progress and final exam idea mock-up's. We wish all of our students (GCSE and A-Level) best luck...all the hard work will pay off!

AS Level in focus

Elsa is currently working on her Unit 2 coursework, experimenting with inks and resin to create some fantastic results.

Arts Award Moderation

When it comes to the time of moderation, all students and staff alike begin to feel the anxiety and pressures of finishing artwork or evidence ready for submission. After last year's successful moderation, we felt this year should run smoothly, if not even better.

Moderation was very successful, with all 41 students passing their Silver or Bronze awards. A special moderation mention goes to Kourosh Simpkins, as Charles Savage (Arts Award Moderator) highly commended his portfolio saying that it was one of the best Silver Awards he has seen, and that he is producing work well beyond his age.
