Foundation Art & Design is an intensive one-year course designed for students who wish to enter British Baccalaureate courses but do not have the corresponding professional training and/or work experience in art and design. Classes give a broad scope of art and design and its many forms and the need for students to explore the available options before really understanding what their strongest points are. If the student does not have a portfolio or creation techniques, we recommend the Pre-Foundation course.
