This course is aimed at those learners<br />

with a creative streak. It will develop<br />

skills and knowledge relating to a<br />

range of arts and crafts; painting, clay<br />

modelling, drawing, basic jewellery<br />

making and project work.<br />

The course will set up an Art<br />

Enterprise whereby artworks will<br />

be displayed around <strong>college</strong> and<br />

in galleries to be sold to generate<br />

income for learners. Additional<br />

enterprise activities will see learners<br />

set up a greetings card business.<br />

This course is for those who want to<br />

progress into mainstream Art and<br />

Design. It will also develop maths<br />

and English as part of a ‘study<br />

programme’.<br />

The course is designed to aid<br />

transition to College; it will embed<br />

the essential expectations of an FE<br />

College into a programme of study<br />

that will include Maths, English<br />

and ICT alongside accessing the<br />

community, developing aspirations<br />

for future employment and building<br />

confidence whilst working with<br />

others.<br />

The course is the first step on our<br />

3 year curriculum that follows the<br />

vocational progression route (those<br />

that would eventually like to secure<br />

employment).<br />

This course is also available at our<br />

Southall Community College, please<br />

see page 192.<br />

The course is designed to develop<br />

transferable skills, knowledge and<br />

attitudes in readiness for paid<br />

employment. The programme is<br />

unique in its approach, in that the<br />

whole programme is based at an<br />

employer’s location. Students will<br />

develop Employability, Customer<br />

Service, Confidence, Maths, English<br />

and ICT whilst working alongside<br />

real employees in a real employment<br />

setting. The course is the final step<br />

of your education journey prior to<br />

finding full time paid employment.<br />
