Photography GCSE provides the opportunity to learn camera skills like shutter speed, aperture, and ISO. Students learn to use Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator to edit photos and create digital illustrations. Lessons involve photoshoots, camera use, image editing, learning about photographers, and creative projects. Students are assessed on editing, camera techniques, presenting personal response, and critical and contextual understanding shown through coursework projects and a 10-hour practical exam unit. Photography GCSE suits creative students interested in aesthetics who enjoy hands-on, practical work and would be good preparation for further photo-related education and careers.
