at supporting progression to Level 3 study, our new creative skills qualifications have been developed in consultation with teachers and employers from the creative industries to ensure they are current, relevant, highly practical and allow for holistic teaching and evidencing of skills.  \nNew Pearson BTEC Level 2 in Art and Design Skills  \nThe qualifications benefit from: Simple structure and reduced admin: the qualifications feature holistic teaching modules with only two assessments in the 180 Certificate, three in the 240 Extended Certificate and four in the 360 Diploma, significantly reducing admin so you can focus on teaching.  \nHighly practical learning and assessment:  \nall learner work is generated through practical projects, briefs, assignments and workshops,  \npreparing them through the development of portfolios supporting progression to Level 3 study. A common assessment criteria grid: the same five assessment criteria are used to assess all work produced throughout the qualifications.  \nThis simplifies assessment and means that it is clear what learners are expected to do to achieve the criteria.  \nFair and compensatory assessment:  \ngrading is recorded at criteria level, rather than by unit. This rewards learners for their exceptional performance in some areas without requiring it in all areas, so grade outcomes will reflect a fair balance across the assessment criteria.  \nGrading weighted to reflect development: in the Diploma, the final grade will be weighted towards the final assessment to ensure that achievement  \nreflects the stage when learners have had maximum opportunity to develop their skills and apply their full potential.  \nAvailable in 180 Certificate, 240 Extended Certificate and 360 Diploma sizes  \n100% internally assessed  \nPE UK A1923  \nFind out more about the Pearson BTEC Level 2 in Art and Design Skills:  \n[quals. pearson.com/artanddesignskills](quals. pearson.com/artanddesignskills)  \nWhat can my students study?  \nTo allow for a rich andimmersive learning experience, students can work freely across a range of technical skills areas.  \nWhether you currently deliver our Level 2 BTECs, or you offer other Art and Design qualifications, moving to the new qualifications is a straightforward process, during which you will be supported by our great team of creative subject experts.  \nHow will my students be assessed?  \nAll evidence produced for assessment is based on practical portfolios of work. The same five assessment criteria are used to assess all work throughout the qualification, making the assessment process simple and clear to teachers and learners.  \nWhat skills will learners gain?  \n* Learners must complete all mandatory assessment units for the relevant qualification size and achieve a Pass grade or above in each assessment criteria.  \nPractical Skills Areas  \n Image and mark  \n Fashion, wearable and textiles  \n 3D, space and product  Moving image and lens  \n Graphic and digital communication  \n\n| Learning and teaching modules | Assessment units | 180\u003Cbr>Certificate | 240\u003Cbr>Extended\u003Cbr>Certificate | 360\u003Cbr>Diploma |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| A: Exploring and Developing Art and Design Skills | A1: Skills Development (120 GLH)\u003Cbr> Exploration of the fundamentals of art and design practice, learning how skills are\u003Cbr>integrated to create work. | Mandatory | Mandatory | Mandatory |\n|  | A2: Art and Design Project (60 GLH)\u003Cbr> Application of creative practices to develop a full art and design project. | Mandatory | Mandatory | Mandatory |\n| B Personal Development | B1: Personal Development (60 GLH)\u003Cbr> Exploration of roles within the art and design sector and further development of the skills needed to progress towards personal aims |  | Mandatory | Mandatory |\n| C Responding toa Creative Brief | C1: Responding to a Creative Brief (120 GLH)\u003Cbr> Production of a proposal and practical response to a creative brief, managing the project from inception to communication of outcomes. | ","cbCaism8exXSRyRb","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaism8exXSRyRb","pdf",240671,"English","# Qualification overview\n## Structure and administration\n## Learning and assessment approach\n## Assessment and grading\n# Qualification sizes and key features\n## 180 Certificate, 240 Extended Certificate, 360 Diploma\n## Internal assessment and evidence basis\n# Practical skills areas\n## Image and mark\n## Fashion, wearable and textiles\n## 3D, space and product\n## Moving image and lens\n## Graphic and digital communication\n# Learning and teaching modules","[{\"question\":\"What is the purpose of this Pearson BTEC Level 2 in Art and Design Skills qualification?\",\"answer\":\"It is aimed at supporting progression to Level 3 study through current, relevant, and practical creative skills training.\"},{\"question\":\"How are learners assessed under this qualification?\",\"answer\":\"Assessment evidence is generated through practical projects, briefs, assignments, and workshops, producing practical portfolios of work.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the qualification ensure fair assessment and grading?\",\"answer\":\"Five assessment criteria are used throughout, with grading recorded at criteria level to reward exceptional performance without requiring it across all areas.\"}]","Pearson BTEC Level 2 in Art and Design Skills - Overview | PDF",1792467468]
