Overview

The BA (Hons) Creative Expressive Arts, Health, and Wellbeing with Foundation Year is designed for individuals interested in using the arts in positive and therapeutic ways. This innovative four-year programme begins with a Foundation Year, providing a firm grounding in essential skills and knowledge while introducing the subject area, enabling progression to the full honours degree. The Foundation Year is particularly suitable for those returning to formal education, planning a career change, or requiring a gradual introduction to university-level study. It offers an insight into therapeutic arts and working with people, combining classroom-based theory through lectures, seminars, tutorials, and exercises with practical sessions in studio, performance, and exhibition work. Emphasis is placed on developing transferable skills to adapt to varied and changing circumstances. Work-based learning and placements with partner organisations are integral to the programme, providing practical experience in working with individuals of differing ages, identities, backgrounds, and abilities. The course also supports progression to acclaimed master’s degrees for those aiming to register and practice as arts therapists. Students benefit from guidance from a personal academic tutor and practice-focused support sessions addressing academic skills, self-care, and employability.
