The Annual Conference for Teachers and Advisers 2021

Georgia is an art and design educator committed to helping students explore and understand the creative disciplines. She does this through her teaching, and developing learning materials and experiences for students and applicants. Her aim is to support students to engage with research, use critical thinking, and develop a strong creative practice in preparation for undergraduate study and a fulfilling career.

Georgia grew up in London and graduated from Central Saint Martins before working in the design industry as a project manager and freelancer. The experience of supporting professional artists, designers, and architects to realise ideas and deliver design events still motivates her to help her students develop the complex organisational and communication skills that the creative industries require.

Her MA is in academic practice and her ongoing research interest relates to student experience and the unique educational environment of the 21st century art school. At Central Saint Martins, Georgia has worked in many different areas including academic support, outreach, short courses, and international development. In the studio, she teaches product and ceramic design and contextual practice.

Currently, she is Curriculum Leader for Foundation Plus, a course that delivers an intensive version of the UALAB Level 4 Foundation in Art and Design, and Academic Coordinator for the Access and Progression to Higher Education Programme. She is also an external moderator for the UAL Awarding body. She teaches at CSM Archway and occasionally travels and works overseas on behalf of UAL.
