Diagnostic Investigation in Art and Design
In this unit, students will engage in a diagnostic investigation of art and design practices, exploring a diverse range of disciplines to help shape or reinforce their specialist interests.

The unit culminates in a response to a creative brief, set and assessed by UAL Awarding Body, allowing students to showcase their learning and artistic development.
The college will endeavour to cover the cost of materials, however there maybe requirements for learners to provide some of the materials themselves.
