This exciting one year intensive course is designed to maximise your opportunities to learn through experimentation, exploration and discovery. This is a course that is transitional in experience and intention and will encourage you to be receptive and responsive to new ideas and ways of thinking and learning. It will introduce you to a range of media, materials, resources and equipment and encourage creative manipulation. Drawing is also seen as a key developmental skill and you will follow a drawing programme to enhance and maximise your portfolio and ambitions.
Our ultimate aim is for you to become creative, confident, independent and successful students and to prepare you for progression at the highest level possible, whether this is progression to a BA (Hons) or Foundation Degree or progression to employment or entrepreneurship. Here are the key features of this course:
- You will be provided with an exciting and challenging, yet safe environment in which to take considered risks to develop your intellectual curiosity and creative thinking through ambition and hard work.
- You will be stimulated and motivated to work outside your comfort zoneand to take an individual approach to problem solving.
- You will be challenged and supported in your learning, helping you to build your confidence to be able to discuss your work within both formal and informal and large and small group situations.
- You will be provided with a curriculum that balances taught sessions with your own personal learning and development time.
