ETHOS
Our programme is designed to help our learners grow their creative skills in a welcoming and supportive space. Our inspirational tutors are selected for their level of excellence in their respective fields, and they boast a multitude of awards and accolades between them. Classes are structured so that you leave equipped not only with a well-crafted piece of jewellery, but also with a comprehensive skill set after every workshop.
Our aim is to inspire and nurture a future generation of jewellers, and to equip you with the knowledge, confidence and enthusiasm to begin or build on your own jewellery journey. Our wide-ranging portfolio of beginner and specialist classes lets returning students build on their repertoire of skills. When you feel ready to embark on your own projects at home our tailor-made tool kits will help you to set up your own home studio.
Beyond the workshops, we continue to nurture an ongoing community of support through our students’ Facebook group, which is a welcoming space to share your inspirations, your creations, and your questions! You can also find further inspiration and technical help on our helpfully themed Pinterest boards.
Sustainability is at the core of our practise, and the School is fast becoming a hub for environmental and ethical making. Our aim is to be a transformative force – training designers of the future to make a positive difference to the environmental impact of the sector. Leading by example we educate future makers by highlighting environmental best practice, material innovation, and low-impact alternatives, while respecting and sustaining the traditional skills of jewellery and metalsmithing.
