Before Studio 22 is prepared for our new Year 12 & 13 students, here is a chance to see just some of the work produced by Poppy for her A level art and photography courses.

As you can imagine, doing both subjects meant that Poppy spent a lot of time in the department and definitely became one of the team. The progress she made was superb.

All the department wish you the best of luck with your Art Foundation Degree and can't wait to hear about all your future successes!
