Continuous informal assessment
There is no qualification for this course.
Once you have finished this course, you could join other creative courses.
The materials for the planned projects will be provided for. During the first session we will discuss possible projects that you may wish to work on later in the course. The teacher will go over material requirements for your own projects and where to get them. We also recommend that you purchase some nippers and a glass cutter. You can get these from Topps Tiles and Homebase. College will provide tile adhesive and grout.
Is is also a good idea to bring a notebook and a pencil. Safety equipment will be provided. If you have any old ceramics and glass that you wish to include in your designs then please bring them along. Please wear closed toe shoes and an apron or clothes that you don't mind getting mucky.
