A-Level Art & Portfolio Preparation

​The A-Level Art course is a two-year program comprising 60% coursework and 40% exam-based work. The course culminates in a 15-hour practical exam, held over two or three days at an exam center or school. A-Level Art demands a rigorous and in-depth exploration of a chosen theme, mirroring the way professional artists delve into ideas from multiple perspectives.

​

At Red, Yellow & Blue, students are encouraged to push boundaries—exploring their chosen themes deeply, experimenting boldly, and drawing inspiration from both contemporary and renowned artists. The course includes group critiques, where students engage in thoughtful discussions about their own work and that of their peers, and gallery visits are strongly encouraged to broaden their artistic vision.

​

The work produced during this course serves as a portfolio for Art School or Architecture interviews, demonstrating each student’s unique style and technical proficiency.

​

While many students complete the full A-Level exam, some may choose to focus solely on building a portfolio without sitting the exam.

​

Students without prior iGCSE or formal art experience may still join the course, provided they commit extra time and dedication to meet its rigorous demands.
