The Photography course aims to develop students as Photographers and Artists. The Photography Department believes that anyone with any kind of camera can be a photographer and that anyone can be an artist. You must want to capture and create images. You will develop your artistic skills by creating images that are individual, personal and unique in style and content. You will become more able to present and communicate your thoughts, ideas, feelings and experiences. The Photography course is an exciting opportunity to gain knowledge and hands-on experience to enhance the development of your craft skills to become a better artist and photographer. You will learn to manipulate the world including situations, people and light and be adept at selecting equipment and tools to achieve the Photography and Art that you wish. Whilst we cannot provide limitless material resources or expensive professional equipment, we can provide good quality cameras and other resources to supplement what you have access to already and the support of enthusiastic and caring teachers/practitioners in a stimulating environment.

The main purpose of the Art & Design (Digital Photography) course is to develop your ability to appreciate the visual world and to enable you to respond in a personal and creative way. The art department staff devise and implement projects which will encourage you to:
 Question all preconceived notions of art and photography and personal ability.
 Trust your creative instincts.
 Express your ideas and feelings through the controlled use of a broad range of materials and techniques.
 Investigate and relate to all the evolutionary processes that are inherent in the development of good artwork.
 Articulate issues relating to the work of other artists/photographers from a variety of cultures, past and present.
 Learn how to use cameras to do this.
