There are options to take other courses with us as well. Our aim is to personalise the learning process to suit each individual.*

The time it will take a learner to reach these qualification will vary. As an average, each credit should take about 10 hours. Most learners will undertake the practical side of their courses in our studio; however the research, design, recording, and evaluating they do, can be done from home, our Studio, or elsewhere (i.e. library).

It is a requirement of the National Open College Network that people who achieve qualifications are at least 14 years old and above. At Southbank Mosaics we have people learning from the primary age up to those who are enjoying their retirement. We create a learning environment, where people can work purposefully on public realm projects, making a significant contribution at their own level.
