Art and Design tutors provide opportunities to develop aesthetic understanding, creativity and visual awareness, knowledge and appreciation. Art and Design tuition encourages candidates to use a range of media and technology to understand, appreciate and respond to their world. The Standard Grade Art and Design Tutor Course, Intermediate Art and Design Tutor Course and Higher Art and Design Tutor Course promotes creative thinking, encourages independent thought, initiative, innovation, problem solving and the development of personal opinions.

The Higher Art and Design Tuition Course, includes the three elements of expressive, design and critical/evaluative activities which are a feature of art and design education in Scotland. Within and across these elements, candidates develop knowledge, understanding and appreciation and are involved in creative and aesthetic activities associated with art and design practice. These activities are experienced across a range of cultural, social and historical contexts which enable candidates to explore personal interests and develop technical skills.

The teaching approach is process-based. All Art and Design exam candidates engage in:

• investigating and researching of relevant sources with Art and Design tutors
• recording the development of different lines of thought and possibilities with an Art and Design teacher
• communicating thoughts, ideas and feelings in a wide variety of ways and a broad range of contexts with an Art and Design tutor
• exercising critical and evaluative skills in coming to informed judgements about their own work and that of professional artists and designers.

The Standard Grade Art and Design Tutor, Intermediate Art and Design Tutor and Higher Art and Design Course promotes opportunities for candidates to express themselves, solve visual and functional problems and work directly with materials and equipment in challenging and satisfying ways. The Art and Design Tutor Course offers candidates the opportunity to make choices and negotiate the content and context of their work. The Art and Design Study Course provides insights into cultural heritage, in particular developing an appreciation of the visual arts and design, and stimulates awareness of the significance of visual imagery as a major means of communication. In addition, Art and Design home tuition assists candidates to arrive at informed personal opinions about the world in which they live.

The principal aims of the Art and Design Tutor Course are to:
• develop awareness, knowledge and understanding of the Visual Arts and Design, their inter-relationships and contribution to society past and present
• develop and apply skills of creative thinking and action
• develop skills to apply and exploit the potential of a range of practical visual media in both Expressive and Design Activity
