Make the most of it from day one. • No half measures. We commit to giving you a professional program with highly skilled practitioners and you commit to taking part, getting involved and trusting in our advice and tutoring. With application and practice you will succeed here. • There are no limitations here, only minimum expectations: accept the challenge of GCSE Art. • Do not underestimate the power of good research, you have two really good web reference here; you should at the very least spend a good amount of time exploring them both. • Don’t forget to have fun with the tasks- We are artists this is the sort of stuff we do best. http://www.tate.org.uk/
