Foundation GNVQ. Students will acquire an understanding of the work of
other artists and crafts people. Through their own work, they will develop
an understanding of line, colour and form during practical workshop
sessions. Students are introduced to a wide variety of materials and
methods and are encouraged to explore, experiment with, and discuss visual
language. All students will prepare a folder of work and will be able to
evaluate and present this.
