Nicky Simpson’s GCSE Moderators comments:

"In Textiles, the standard of the work was outstanding…The course structure was strong. Finished pieces were often exciting and innovative. The individuality of the candidates was clearly seen in the diversity of colours, styles and techniques carefully annotated in work books and then displayed in the final outcomes.”

“The course gave candidates a very strong framework on which to build a response to the theme. Ideas were developed showing depth and thought so that the work of the highest achieving candidates was original, creative and in-depth.”

“Textile candidates personal portfolios were brimming with ideas, experiments and references to textile and fashion designers as well as fine artists. Overall, the submission was exceptional in the engagement and industry and imaginative use of materials’.

This conference was both enlightening and inspiring. The breadth of information and knowledge was exceptional and I came away with thoughts buzzing around what I want to implement in my setting and how I will use the resources to pass the information on to both colleagues and students. Just brilliant! Thank you.
