All on the back wall of my house, next to the back door, in a vertical line:

Light fixture (exterior side, top[above switches])
-
(2) 20amp switches in 2gang box (interior side of wall, middle[below light fixture]
-
GFCI outlet (exterior, bottom[below switches])

I want 1 switch to control the outlet and 1 switch to control the light.

However, I need the light to be GFCI protected from the LOAD side of the outlet correct? I don't see how to make this work while still having both things switched seperately?

These are all new, unwired receptacles. Ive only puled a 20a line from the breaker to the switch box so far.
