does not prescribe ways of working. Instead, it encourages innovative and imaginative responses from students in their interpretation of the requirements of the specification. The process of studying art is an ongoing visual enquiry that has an infinite number of creative possibilities. For example, creating an observational study from looking at something could and should be regarded as covering the Development of an idea (AO1); Refinement and Experimentation (AO2); Recording (AO3); and Presenting (AO4).\nThis document contains two possible schemes of work for Component 1: Personal Portfolio but they are provided purely as suggestions:\nOption 1: ‘Towards abstraction’\nOption 2: ‘Pattern and texture’\nBoth schemes of work can be adapted or integrated into existing schemes of work to suit the needs of the centre and its students. You are advised to read through the whole document and to select the topics and ideas most appropriate to your own students.\nThe schemes of work could be used as ice breakers and / or starters to enable students to develop their knowledge and skills both in creating and presenting individual pieces and more developed bodies of work, allowing them to gain a better understanding of the inter-related Assessment Objectives.\nAlthough seemingly driven by a Fine Art focus, the schemes of work offer approaches that could be the starting point for any project within any area of study. They are not intended to be used over a specified period of time but should be used for as long as they are inspiring and productive.\nDriven by a series of easy-to-follow exercises, both schemes of work are based on and around observational recording skills. They should enable all ability levels to gain confidence and, above all, to achieve a substantial portfolio of evidence for submission. As with any project / theme, they could be attempted at any level, Year 10, Year 11 or beyond.\nOne area of concern is understanding cultures and the work of others in order to inform and nourish the ongoing visual art work. The artists and cultures mentioned here are just a few of the possible places from which more knowledge can be gained. They are not intended to be the ‘correct’ contexts, and should be seen as starting points for further discovery and exploration. Where appropriate, relevant creative and cultural industries could be referenced to support the ongoing development of each student’s work.\nPlease note that the web addresses in this document are correct at the time of publishing. However, some web addresses may change, cease to exist or inadvertently link to sites with content that could be considered inappropriate. While we regret any inconvenience this may cause, we cannot accept responsibility for any such changes.\nScheme of work option 1: ‘Towards abstraction’\nThis scheme of work aims to introduce a range of skills through observation and experimentation.
