All students at the School are full time. Each students final programme of study is a combination ofexamination classes, independent study lessons (ISLs) and private study periods. Private study, in

School and at home, will be necessary to complete all courses satisfactorily. Students have time inthe week without classes so that they may use the library, ICT facilities in the Sixth Form CommonRoom and other resources within the School.

This is an exciting and stimulating one-year course that further develops the practical and critical skills thathave been practiced at GCSE.

candidates who so wish can then continue for the full A2 award in the second year. A good level of Englishis required.

Whereas the AS course is largely concerned with experimentation and the development of ideas, the A2course which leads to the full "A" Level award consolidates many of the coursework starting points andencourages the realisation and development of more extensive and completed outcomes.

Candidates are required to produce two modules of work. The first is compiling a Coursework Portfolio(F411), where candidates explore a range of process and ideas and complete a programme of study whichleads to the production of personal outcomes, based on first hand study. The second is a ControlledAssignment (F422), where candidates explore a range of starting points, provided at least three weeks inadvance and demonstrate their ability to plan, modify and evaluate their own and the work of others, whichleads to the production of a personal and creative outcome. Further evidence for the assessment will be

provided by sketchbooks, annotated sheets, personal scrapbooks and coursework folders. Students willneed to have successfully completed the AS course before moving onto A2. Work is underpinned bystudying the work of other artists so that candidates are more aware of the possibilities afforded in their ownwork. This is enhanced by regular visits to art galleries and museums.

MODERN FOREIGN LANGUAGES

AS/A2 LEVEL FRENCH, GERMAN & SPANISH

Foreign Language graduates have lower rates of unemploymentthan those in the majority of other disciplines including Engineering,Business Studies, Psychology and even Computing. The HigherEducation Statistics Agency.

The aims of the two year Advanced Level Courses are to develop language skills andknowledge in a chosen foreign language. At the end of the course students are able to

communicate effectively in professional and social situations with native speakers.These skills allow students to continue to study languages at university or use thelanguages skills in the workplace. Many employers value the importance of being able tospeak a foreign language fluently.

Research into the needs of British business points to a growing need for languages at all levels in the work-force. The increase in international contacts within our economy means that the need for the language skillspermeates all levels and is not confined to professional or managerial posts. Almost all of todays schoolchildren will have some need to communicate internationally.

Germany and France are currently the most important non English speaking market for British small

businesses.(Data extracted from CiLT)

The course involves gaining awareness of world issues and develops your interest in current affairs, the artsand literature. Watching French and German films and spending time abroad as a part of the EuropeanWork Experience are integral parts of the course.

The course is assessed at the end of each year with a series of examinations in all 4skills, Listening, Speaking, Reading and Writing.

The department has recently switched to using the Welsh Board

for AS/A2 examinations because of its student friendly nature.

Students will be required to purchase a grammar workbook at an approximate cost of 6.00.
