The Walker Art Gallery houses one of the largest collections in England, outside of London including works, from the likes of Rembrandt and David Hockney. The Tate Liverpool is part of a network of four galleries/museums, (including Tate Britain in London), that houses the United Kingdom's national collection of British Art, and International Modern and Contemporary Art. Students were able to take inspiration from the artwork they saw on the day to influence their own coursework and found the trip useful and insightful. If you are interested in studying art and design, find more information in our Prospectus or speak with the tutors by visiting us at one of our Open Evenings. See below for some student comments on the trip: *“The Walker and Tate art galleries were really inspirational. I saw artwork from some of the most famous artists in the world and it was great to see the work up close.”* (AS Art Student at The Sixth Form College) *“I enjoyed spending time outside of class with other Art students; we shared ideas and learned a lot from seeing the original artwork. I really enjoyed how different some of the artwork looked and the variety of artwork there was. This has helped me so much and I will be using some of the art work I saw as influence for the rest of my brief.”* (AS Art Student at The Sixth Form College) ### AS Art Trip to Liverpool [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/480x480s/gallery/students_studying_work.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/gallery/students_studying_work.jpg) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/480x480s/gallery/student_through_sculpture.JPG) ](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/gallery/student_through_sculpture.JPG) [ ![](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/480x480s/gallery/student_drawing_art_work.jpg) ](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/gallery/student_drawing_art_work.jpg) - [ previous](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news/2013-10-16-business-studies-trip-alton-towers) - [next ](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news/2013-11-06-free-microsoft-applications-for-every-student) ### [Latest News](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news) [![Image of Halloween Fest brings spooky fun to College](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/750x480c/news/Halloween_Fest_26_-_Photo_Montage.jpg)](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news/2026-10-26-halloween-fest-brings-spooky-fun-to-college) 26 October 2026 #### [Halloween Fest brings spooky fun to College](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news/2026-10-26-halloween-fest-brings-spooky-fun-to-college) ### [Upcoming Events](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/events) [![Image of Open Evening](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/750x480c/events/Edited_Top_3.jpg)](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/events/2026-11-26-open-evening) 26 November 2026 #### [Open Evening](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/events/2026-11-26-open-evening) ### [Blog](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/blog) [![Image of Students Secure 3rd Place in Merseyside Police Cyber Challenger 2025](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/imagecache/750x480c/blog/IMG_0394.jpg)](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/blog/2025-03-06-10-26-00-students-secure-3rd-place-in-merseyside-police-cyber-challenger-2025) 6 March 2025 #### [Students Secure 3rd Place in Merseyside Police Cyber Challenger 2025](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/blog/2025-03-06-10-26-00-students-secure-3rd-place-in-merseyside-police-cyber-challenger-2025) [Tweets by BSFC](https://twitter.com/BSFC) ![Top 3](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/Top_3_Footer.jpg) ![Educate Awards - Most Inspirational Sixth Form](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/Most_Inspirational_Winner_-_Banner_Rounded_Corners(1).jpg) ![Educate North College of the Year 2023](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/College_of_the_Year_Badge_-_Banner.jpg) [![Ofsted](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/Ofsted_Outstanding_OP_Colour.png)](https://files.ofsted.gov.uk/v1/file/50248883) [![TES Shortlist](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/For_Website_Partner.jpg)](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/news/2018-02-26-college-wins-national-sixth-form-college-of-the-year-award) [![Quality in Careers](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/Quality_in_Careers_Standard_-_JPEG.jpg)](https://www.qualityincareers.org.uk/) ![CE Certified](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/new_ce_badge.png) [![Sixth Form Colleges Association](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/SFCA.jpg)](http://www.sixthformcolleges.org/) ![AoC](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/Without_Border.jpg) [![Duke of Edinburgh Gold Award](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/partners/DofE-logo-gunmetal-full-RGB_(504x800)_(403x640).jpg)](http://www.dofe.org/) ![Birkenhead Sixth Form College](https://files.schudio.com/birkenhead/images/logo/logo-white(2).png) © Copyright 2011–2026 Birkenhead Sixth Form College All rights reserved. **Birkenhead Sixth Form College** Park Road West, Claughton Wirral, Merseyside, CH43 8SQ Tel: 0151 652 5575 Email: School & Trust Websites by [ ![Schudio logo](https://www.bsfc.ac.uk/img/logo/light.png) ](https://www.schudio.com/)
