Through the careful selection and presentation of their work, pupils will present a Coursework Portfolio developed from given starting points (60% of the marks).They will produce a final practical examination project (40% of the marks) towards the end of Year 11. The focus of the General Art GCSE is to produce work that shows exploration, research and the acquisition of techniques and skills.
