Course programme

Summary

Students work towards the University of the Arts London (UAL) Level 2 Art and Design Diploma during one year of study.
Study includes 2 and 3-dimensional visual language, exploring the art, craft and design work of others, and applying the creative process through printmaking, painting, drawing, textiles, sculpture, photography and digital art. You will also learn written, research and IT skills. This is all underpinned with a love of drawing. In the creative process, traditional techniques and digital media are explored and you will choose your own pathways toward the end of the course.

The course works with partners in the community to broaden students’ awareness of art & design employment and careers. May of the projects are linked to these partners who give “live brief” scenarios.

You will exhibit your work at an end of year Creative Arts Exhibition and the course supports a range of enrichment activities such as visits to galleries and museums.

In addition to your main programme you will also study English and Maths. Depending on your grades on entry you will study either Functional Skills or GCSE. Please check our English and Maths page for further information.
