A-LEVEL COURSES

Our A-level study programme is perfect for students that want to explore Art and Design subjects a little further before specialising or simply want to keep their options open. Allowing students to creatively flourish whilst gaining academic qualifications that will provide an additional layer in their creative career prospects. We recognise how important it is to explore and identify your strengths and creative options so we have devised a completely new A-level option which provides you with an enhanced experience of creative education. The A-level study programme consists of: 1. A-level in Art and Design, 2. A-level in Photography 3. and the option to choose an A-level in either; The History of Art, or English. At the end of your two years, you will have completed three A-level courses whilst having the opportunity to experience much more!
