ASSESSMENT MAP – ART AND DESIGN

Grade / DEVELOP / EXPLORE / RECORD / PRESENT
Emerging / Respond to artists work, and incorporate their ideas within your own work.
Identify strengths in your work / Explore and investigate a range of materials / Gather and assemble suitable information and visual resources. / Create work which shows links to the project theme.
Developing / Use research on artists and designers to inform decisions. Explain ideas behind your work and respond to guidance / Select materials and techniques and experiment with line, shape, tone, colour, texture and form. / Use a sketchbook for different purposes, including recording observations, planning and ordering ideas / Show how your study of artists has informed your outcome
GCSE 1 / Study of artists and designers creatively informs your work.
Use art vocabulary to express opinions on artists work and identify characteristics in order to grow own ideas. / Independently improve practical skills through purposeful experimentation. / Improve accuracy when recording from observation, memory and imagination. / Your study of visual art, artefacts, cultural and digital media has creatively informed your responses.
GCSE 2 / Develop ideas from research, following a sequence of design steps such as; thumbnail studies, annotation, multiple views, compositions and maquettes / Knowledgably develop practical skills, through investigation and experimentation, to test ideas that inform your own making / Use varied approaches to record ideas and observations, such as varied drawing techniques, collage and digital media to record from life and secondary sources to inform and create imaginative ideas for your work. / Create an imaginative response, which makes clear links to your chosen artists and is personal in the way you have interpreted and responded to ideas.
GCSE 3 / Investigations of artists has led to different versions of an idea and led to creative improvements. The style of the artist is used in the work. / Understand how to use a range pf art, craft and design and digital techniques in two and three dimensions. / Effectively control a range of drawing, designing and digital techniques, when recording observations and planning further ideas / Make a creative response, which makes clear links to your chosen artists and is personal in the way you have interpreted and responded to ideas.
GCSE 4 / Reasonably consistent ability to develop ideas through sustained investigations informed by contextual and other sources / Reasonably consistent ability to refine ideas through experimenting and selecting appropriate resources, media, materials techniques and processes / Reasonably consistent ability to record ideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions in visual and/or other forms / Reasonably consistent ability to present a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating critical understanding, realising intentions and making connections between visual, written and other elements
GCSE 5 / Just about clear and consistent ability to develop ideas through sustained investigations informed by contextual and other sources / Just about clear and consistent ability to refine ideas through experimenting and selecting appropriate resources, media, materials techniques and processes / Just about clear and consistent ability to record ideas, observations and insights relevant to intentions in visual and/or other forms / Just about clear and consistent ability to present a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating critical understanding, realising intentions and making connections between visual, written and other elements
