Pat Chapman, The Northern School of Art’s Vice Principal (Employability and External Relations) said: “The Northern School of Art offers students a unique creative environment and community in which they can develop their skills and prepare for a career in the ever expanding creative industries.
“They get access to excellent specialist facilities and equipment with the highest quality teaching and technical support, together with the opportunity to work with industry and cultural partners of national and international repute.
“All our students and graduates have free access to specialist support for employability and enterprise which has been recognised at a national level for its quality - this package is why our graduates have such a great success record when they leave us.”
