Level 3 Art Design

Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Mrs H. Son.

Design is a specialist Visual Arts subject which aims for students to develop an understanding of advanced processes and procedures used in design. Through a range of tasks students will demonstrate an understanding of image manipulation, materials, and techniques used in both hand generated and digital design. Students will define their own issue-based brief and resolve ideas through drawing, digital rendering and finished designs. The independent nature of this course is similar to tertiary education.

An achieved or better in Level 2 Design External Assessment Standard is required. An achieved or better in Level 1 Design and Photography External Assessment Standard could be granted entry with HOD approval.
