Course Description

Prerequisites

Open Entry


At this carving level, the student will gain the knowledge and skills required to successfully earn Level 2 credits for the National Certificate of Educational Achievement next year.

Our primary goal for the year is to significantly broaden the student’s knowledge and skills base. This involves fostering research skills, enhancing drawing skills essential for crafting a successful carving design, and refining manual skills.

A substantial part of this year will be based on the completion of a project that requires the student to make a sustained investigation and present a finished carved artwork.
