Course materials are supplied at the beginning of each term and followed at the same pace as attending students.

Distance Learners are supported by a named tutor who will arrange a tutorial schedule to suit each student – tutorials are conducted by zoom, facetime or telephone. Email support is offered throughout term time with tutors responding within 48 hours and usually within 24 hours. Students are asked to submit images of work completed by email before each tutorial so tutors can offer feedback and advice.

Distance learners are invited to attend a weekend session in Ipswich one weekend per term. These are practical sessions covering some of the ‘messier’ techniques of the course. Plus tutorials with your named tutor.

Assessments will be posted to your named tutor for deadline dates and will be returned to you.

Your work may be selected by the Internal Verifier in the spring term or the External Verifier in the summer term to be viewed. This work would need to be posted to your named tutor and will be returned to you.

Distance learning courses are now booking for Sept 2024
