In Years 12 and 13 students prepare for the Edexcel International A Level in Economics and Business.  Pupils prepare for the following units:

 

Component 1
This component is concerned with developing the candidate's response to visual stimuli and
encourages the process of direct observation from primary sources, recording, analysis and two
and/or three-dimensional development. The candidate will choose one stimulus from the examination
paper from which to make studies in any suitable colour/tone, medium, process or technique
Component 2
The intention of this component is to allow candidates to pursue a field of study in research,
development and realisation in depth. However, unlike Component 3, more emphasis will be placed
on the development of ideas and the use of processes rather than the resolution of the final
coursework project piece itself
Component 3
The intention of this component is to allow candidates to pursue a field of study in research,
development and realisation in depth. Unlike Component 2, as much emphasis will be placed on the
resolution of the final piece as on the development of ideas and the use of processes.
Component 4
Candidates will produce a detailed study of any aspect of the visual arts that relates to their work for
Component 2 or Component 3: Coursework. First-hand experience of the work(s) should form at
least part of the study. Although it is envisaged that first-hand familiarity with, for example, a building
or design studio, will be the instigation of the candidate's interest, reference to other works not easily
available except in reproduction may form a substantial part of the study
