Cambridge O Level Art and Design (BD, MV, MU, PK) (6090)

The Cambridge O Level Art & Design syllabus aims to encourage a personal response by stimulating imagination, sensitivity, conceptual thinking, powers of observation and analytical ability. Learners gain confidence and enthusiasm as they develop technical skills in two and three dimensional form and composition, and are able to identify and solve problems in visual and tactile forms. They also learn how to develop ideas from initial attempts to final solutions. An ideal foundation for further study, Cambridge O Level Art & Design also develops a greater awareness of the role played by the visual arts in society and in history, broadening cultural horizons and individual experience.

Cambridge O Level Art & Design (6090) is available to candidates in Pakistan, Bangladesh, Maldives and Mauritius (private candidates) only. Schools in other countries are advised to enter students for Cambridge IGCSE Art & Design (0400), a popular course with schools worldwide, providing students with an ideal foundation for further study.
