- Title
Time and Space: Access and the Lifecycle of the Art Student.
- Authors
Mc Ternan, Finola
- Abstract
Reflecting on how 'transition' can be interpreted in the context of an art and design college, this article will discuss how the access programme at the National College of Art and Design (NCAD), Dublin supports the art students' lifecycle in, through and out of college. The article will present an overview of NCAD's access programme and will track its development as it has evolved and how, through a series of targeted initiatives and key partnerships it has identified, retained and supported students beyond graduation. The NCAD has a distinctive widening participation programme that is embedded in the School of Education but is part of the organic culture of the art college. This support enables the mainstreaming of NCAD's access policy through its engagement with schools and community, seeking to raise aspirations and awareness of art and design as a life option for young people.
