It emphasizes student independence, realistic goal-setting, controlled use of the allowed time, and completion of preparatory studies before sustained focus.

(9-1) Art and Design  \nComponent 2 Scheme of Work  \n© artwork : Mark Bolitho | Origami photography Pearson Education Ltd/Just in Hoffman  \nGCSE Art and Design (2016)  \nComponent 2 Scheme of Work  \nIntroduction  \nThis scheme of work does not replace the broad theme and starting points made available in the Externally Set Assignment paper issued on the Edexcel website in January of the year of the examination.  \nComponent 2 should allow students to demonstrate the ability to construct a sustained line of reasoning, which is coherent, relevant, substantiated and logically structured. All knowledge, skills, understanding and activities should, therefore, be relevant to the student’s creative journey. The work undertaken for this component should be seen as part of a substantive project(s), rather than a series of disjointed tasks, and work should evidence all the Assessment Objectives holistically.  \nThis scheme of work provides a structure that can be followed for each externally set theme from year to year. It is intended to encourage and support students as they embark on a more independent personal journey towards a resolution that is based on their own ideas in response to the externally set theme.  \nAs students begin to work on Component 2 they are advised to build on the skills and processes  learned in Component 1. The time frame for this unit of work is shorter so it is most appropriate that it  is seen as the culmination of their learning experiences thought out the GCSE centre devised course.  \nDifferentiation will be largely by outcome rather than by task. Personal development of work should be emphasised but that does not mean that more generic tasks cannot be offered to the students as appropriate. It is also vital that students learn to set themselves realistic objectives and take control of the time allowed. This is especially true for the timed element of this component. Setting over-or under-ambitious targets for the timed examination will not yield the best possible outcome for students.  \nStudents must complete all preparatory studies before the start of the period of sustained focus. The 10-hour period of sustained focus during which students produce their final response(s) to the theme may take place over multiple sessions (a maximum of four within three consecutive weeks) . During the 10-hour period of sustained focus under examination conditions, students will work unaided to produce personal response(s), with reference to their preparatory studies, in response to the ESAbroad-based thematic starting point.  \nUseful documents are available to further support the teaching of Component 2:  \nGCSE Art and Design Contextual references booklet GCSE Art and Design Written Annotation Guide  \nGCSE Exemplar Library  \nExaminer reports  \nScheme of work: Component 2 ESA Theme  \nThe aim of this scheme of work is to enable students to complete a piece (s) of work supported by preparatory studies, demonstrating their individual creative journey from first ideas through a line of enquiry, to a finished outcome(s) . Work should be produced in a centre-determined preparation period and conclude in a 10-hour timed examination. Work should respond to the externally set theme and cover all four Assessment Objectives.  \n\n| Week No. | Learning objectives | Assessment Objectives | Learning activities/Lesson content | Resources\u003Cbr>(materials) | Exemplar resources |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| 1 | To know the ESA Theme and understand the meaning of the theme.\u003Cbr>To consider how other artists, craftspeople , and designers have worked in relation to the set theme.\u003Cbr>To begin developing own ideas in response to the theme. | AO1\u003Cbr>AO3 | Introduce students to the examination paper.
