Getting Ahead

Art & Design UAL Foundation Diploma at Alton College

We aim to help you build a portfolio of art and design work, giving you a chance to experiment and discover what area of Art and Design you really enjoy and are most suited to. We’ll help you to challenge yourself and expand your knowledge of Art & Design so that you are prepared to study at degree level. The course will help you to make the right choices of what courses to study at university. The course is very practical and is supported by theoretical and contextual research. Students are encouraged to develop personal creative responses, analytical and communication skills.   

This project is designed to keep your creativity going before the course starts and help you to begin to think about different specialist areas.

The teaching has been really good, I’ve loved all of my teachers, they’ve all been really nice and supportive.

I’m very, very happy, I didn’t expect to do so well. The College has been helpful and supportive. I loved my courses, and the teachers were really good – every single one of them. The facilities are great, but it’s the staff that really make this place.
