The course offers the opportunity to explore a range of media and techniques. You will be encouraged to investigate a stimulus and work through a process of observation, recording and analysis; developing your designs from original drawings and photography.
The normal expectation for entry to our Sixth Form is six Grades 9 - 5 or equivalent at GCSE, but we do consider all applications on an individual basis, so if you have any concerns about meeting these grades please come and speak to Mrs C L Wheeler or Mr Smith, our Assistant Principal (Academic). The best foundation for success in A Level Textiles is a GCSE in Textiles. You should have an understanding of the basic elements of art and also some understanding of the place of art, craft and design in the world. Above all you need an interest in creative exploration and the determination to develop the areas that inspire you most.
