Diploma Honours 2025

​​AA Diploma Honours is the highest award you can achieve upon completion of the five-year programme. Fifth Year students are nominated at the end of each academic year based on their presentations at their final tables that convince the Diploma tutors of the value, relevance and premise of their project. Six projects were awarded Diploma with Honours in the 2024–25 academic year, manifesting the breadth of interests contained within the school.

The recipients of the AA Diploma with Honours 2025 will present their final projects and discuss the process of how they each developed their projects, their choice of subject matter, site, media, position and audience, as well as what receiving honours means to them.
