“The heritage of art and design in the British culture is huge and distinct. Art galleries can be found across the nation, housing some of the UK’s and the world’s most cherished artists, and all of them have a potential place on the wall for your very own future creations. From Art history to sculpture, theatre to fashion, there is a wide variety of different Fine Art areas you can study both on the course and further progression routes when you have completed an A-level within Fine Art.”

“ I chose Rainhill Sixth for the small class sizes. In Fine Art, my teacher has really encouraged me and helped me reach my best. We have been on trips to source supplies and this was really helpful. This course has been really useful and it will help me if I decide I want to go into the art and design industry. .”
