Textile Design is concerned with the design of cloth for Interiors and Fashion. There are two broad areas of Textile Design known as ‘Structure’ and ‘Surface’. Structural Textiles include woven and knitted textiles where the structure and pattern of the cloth is formed from and by using yarn or thread. Surface Textiles include printed and embroidered textiles where pattern and interest is applied to the surface of an existing cloth using a variety of methods and processes. The programme is composed of four subject specialisms - print, knit, weave and embroidery - which enable depth of enquiry and subject specialist expertise. Selection for a subject specialism at the end of Stage 2 will be determined on evidence of aptitude and potential.  This increasing singular subject specialist focus of study will provide the means to examine the parameters of each subject specialism in depth.The curriculum of each pathway
