Welcome to your Art and Design Subject Advisor service 

This Subject Advisor service has been designed to support our art and design qualifications. Led by the Subject Advisor, Susan Young, the service will help solve your queries relating to our art and design qualifications and provide a means of sharing ideas, information and concerns.

The service also offers all teachers of art and design the opportunity to discuss and share art and design-related issues.

Central to the service is our online Art and Design Community Forum which provides you with an opportunity to speak to other teachers, raise concerns and ask advice. Whether you have concerns about new specifications or assessment, or you want to know what books and resources to use to support your teaching, you can use our Art and Design Community Forum as a means to find out more. You can also read documents and use links that Susan Young has posted.

If you are an existing Edexcel centre, you can use the site and the materials posted on it to help with your planning and teaching of our current art and design qualifications. You can also provide us with feedback as to how we can improve our qualifications, our support and our services.

Susan Young’s biography:

 Susan Young

After graduating as a designer, Susan worked in industry before training as an FE teacher and going on to manage and teach a range of art and design qualifications for 20 years. She was responsible for the planning, delivery, assessment and internal verification of BTEC and General Qualifications in Art and Design.

She also worked as an External Verifier, covering a range of subject areas including fine art, 3D and product design, photography, graphics and fashion and textiles.

During her teaching career, Susan continued as a design practitioner and encouraged the use of new technologies and vocational practices within the educational environment to develop learner creativity and skills. Also during that time, she wrote a range of BTEC Short Courses in Art and Design at all levels for Edexcel, and a number of Art and Graphic Design units for the revised BTEC Nationals.
