3 ENTRY REQUIREMENTS: For all courses we expect a minimum qualification to progress to A levels. C Grade in related GCSE s Merit in related Btec s Can I start an A Level with no Gcse in the subject? YES

4 AFTER A LEVELS IN ART & DESIGN? If you want to progress to Further Education then all A Levels give you UCAS points to get into university. However - with many Art and Design courses in colleges and universities you will gain entry based on the strength of your Portfolio and an interview. Many Art Degree Level courses insist that you have completed a Foundation year. It is possible however that the strongest A Level students progress directly to Degree Level courses, anywhere in the country. 100% of MNS Art & Design students who have applied have been successful in gaining entry to college/university.

6 WHY COULD AN A LEVEL IN ART & DESIGN HELP ME IN THE FUTURE? VISUAL LANGUAGE Having skills in Art and Design is of course an advantage and can lead to careers.but being creative is increasingly becoming an advantage in all fields, be that - TV, Advertising, Business, Politics, Commerce etc etc. BUT... Becoming even more important is VISUAL LITERACY. That is our ability to UNDERSTAND images An A level in Art and Design helps us develop an understanding of the vast quantity of visual information we receive every day. What s cool, what s not? What s in, what s out?

7 WHY DO ART A LEVEL AT MNS? Last year all our Art & Design subjects achieved a positive Value Added. We supported students in producing the best results we have ever had - 99% of Art, Photo, Textile and Graphics A2 students achieved A* -E (pass) 70% achieved A* - C (20 students achieved A or better!) One student managed to get an A* for all three of her subjects (Art/Photo/Textiles) 100% of students achieved a pass or above for Btec (that s you lot)

8 SOME OTHER SUCCESSES FROM LAST YEAR We entered 4 students work for the National Student s Art Awards 2 received a certificate of commendation. 2 made it to the finals and were exhibited in The Mall Gallery in London.
