Welcome to Woodkirk Academy

The Progression team at Leeds Arts University are pleased to announce their Online Summer School for students in Years 10-13 who are interested in the Creative Arts.  The Summer School will be launched on Monday 27 July 2020 at 10am and new content will be released over four consecutive days to Thursday 30 July 2020.  The course content will then remain accessible on their website throughout August so any students who sign up but can’t take part over the four days can still take part at their own convenience, in their own time over the summer.

This free online Summer School will feature pre-recorded creative activities accompanied by video tutorials and downloadable handouts from inspiring Progression Support Workers to follow along with at home. They will guide students through ways to improve their drawing, design and making skills as well as providing information and support for students who are planning to apply for a creative subject at college or university.  Each day will feature video presentations by Leeds Arts University undergraduate student ambassadors, who will share their experiences of studying at Leeds Arts University and their top tips for the application process, careers in the creative industries and showcasing examples of their work.

As is this is online, the activities will require internet access to be able to view and download the content, and so they require parent consent on the application form. As their team are working remotely, they can only accept online application forms.
