<p> </p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">You will follow a structured course covering all key stages of creating a small, simple leaded or copper-foiled panel—design, cut-line drawing, glass selection and cutting, leading, soldering, cementing, and finishing. Improvers can refine their skills and explore new techniques.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Yes, but this is a short course, so it is best to join by week 2. </span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">This is a Beginners’ course but I<span style="background-color:#fbfbfc"><span style="color:black">mprovers wanting to gain more experience will also be accommodated.</span></span></span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Learners can re-enrol the following term to further develop their design and making skills or join the <strong>“<em>Stained-Glass Summer School”</em></strong>. After completing three terms at beginner level, they may progress to the intermediate course.</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">Yes. Learners will need to purchase materials such as coloured glass, lead, and additional solder and cement for larger panels. Coloured glass can be bought from the tutor or local suppliers. Material costs vary by project scale, but an A4-sized panel typically costs around £30. Fee includes classroom sundries (e.g. paper, masking tape, tracing paper, glass cleaner, kiln shelf paper, two strips of solder, fluxes, white spirit, patinas, glass paints, etc).</span></span></p>

<p><span style="font-size:12.0pt"><span style="font-family:&#34;Arial&#34;,sans-serif">No formal homework is set, but learners are encouraged to research online, develop their sketches and designs, or source materials from local suppliers if they prefer to buy glass directly.</span></span></p>
