2. Course description The Foundation Diploma is a highly intensive but rewarding course for students wishing to seriously engage with, develop and hone their artistic/designer skills and professional aspirations. It is a mostly practical course demanding a high degree of discipline and self-motivation. The course focuses on preparing students for entry into Higher Education Art and Design programmes (or in gaining employment via other routes) by giving them the opportunity to explore a number of different creative areas, enabling them to discover their own creative pathway and prepare a strong relevant portfolio of practical work. The initial Exploratory Stage will introduce students to a wide range of art based disciplines and experiences; later in the course they will specialise in a chosen subject area where they can really begin to explore their personal interests and develop their own ideas. Students will be supported with weekly tutorials and group critiques to aid students' personal studies. The course is full time consisting of 13+ guided hours a week.
