Case Studies
Harrelson
Studying Art and Design Extended Diploma level 3
The course helped me develop my skills in lots of different areas – I’ve loved using my imagination and creating new things. The tutors were helpful and taught me a lot.
Anneka
Studying towards her Level 3 Extended Diploma in Art and Design
I moved from another college after feeling the course wasn’t for me, and after attending an open day I was impressed with the facilities and equipment here. The tutors give me great advice and feedback on my work, which has helped push me in the right direction and helped me decide what I want to do in the future.
