Art and Design Key Terms
Every word an art department teaches, Year 7 to A Level, in one A4 book. Each key stage gets its own pages: the terms grouped the way they are taught rather than alphabetically, a definition that fits on two lines, and a drawing wherever a sentence will not do. Each key stage opens on one large labelled picture — a lit still life for Key Stage 3, a painted surface cut away layer by layer for GCSE, an interior read in four moves for A Level — and the numbers on the picture appear again beside the same words in the list. Then a page on using the words: the ones the assessment itself is written in, the false friends that mean something else in an art room, the same point written weakly and then properly, and what each word becomes at the next key stage.
The DfE’s national curriculum programmes of study for art and design at Key Stage 3, the Art and design GCSE subject content (DFE-00700-2014) and the GCE AS and A level subject content, with Ofqual’s GCE subject level conditions; most terms appear by name in one of those documents and the cover says how many, the rest are standard studio vocabulary; no awarding body is named, and nothing a board decides for itself appears in the A Level pages · 13 pages, 12 sections ·For art departments: printed one per pupil, kept in the front of a sketchbook, or put on the wall by key stage
