KS4 Art Schemes of Work

Throughout year 9 and 10 students work though projects which build upon technical skills, media and knowledge from KS3. In addition to this they receive an introduction into new more advanced skills and media needed for year 11.Just like KS3 these projects follow four different stages

Developideas through investigations, demonstrating critical understanding of sources.

Refinework by exploring ideas, selecting

and experimenting with appropriate media, materials, techniques and

processes.

Recordideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions as work

progresses.

Presenta personal and meaningful response

that realises intentions and demonstrates understanding of

visual language.

However the exam board are keen to promote the holistic approach which promotes these areas being worked on continually rather than one at a time. This is introduced in year 9 and taken through Year 10 to Year 11. This ensures students understand what each stage consists of to develop and realise strengths.
