Our pre-degree courses can offer both a gateway to a creative undergraduate degree and a route back into education on your own terms.
Designed for those students looking for an alternative to A-levels, or in some cases mature students wishing to explore their creativity, pre-degree studies are an excellent introduction to the creative industries.
Our courses cover a wide range of disciplines such as photography, textiles, graphic design, animation and crafts and when you’re finished, you can either leave with a fantastic qualification or you can progress to an undergraduate degree through our Diploma 2 Degree scheme.
