Check out our new new bitesize video to support students with ideas for the Component 2 Photography period of sustained focus.

We also published guidance for line managers and non-specialists supporting GCSE and A Level Art and Design courses as well as an updated Essential Guide to Component 1 for International GCSE Art and Design.
