My decision to study Textiles was swayed by first studying on the Art and Design Foundation course where I was able to get a feel for all the workshops and develop an aspiration to develop these newly forming skills much further.
The teaching quality and facilities benefitted my learning because all the lecturers, tutors and technicians are passionate about what they do, and they also have their own independent practices alongside working at the University which I think gives them a real wealth of practical and theoretical knowledge of textile design practice.
