28/07/2013 - 10/08/2013 (for 16-17 year olds)
This residential course will introduce you to the world of fashion via sessions based on the short courses offered at LCF. Tutors are drawn from both academia and industry to offer the best experience, and the two-week course will typically be taught by between two and five teaching staff to further enhance your time with us.
Further information: The courses will be held at Queen Anne's School near Reading which offers fabulous teaching facilities in a dedicated art and design block and extensive leisure amenities including swimming pool, theatre, tennis courts and large playing fields - plus modern accommodation.
The two-week programme is planned around students arriving on a Sunday and departing on a Saturday, so that they have a full weekend in the middle of their stay for a series of fashion-related excursions including a trip into central London.
Classes will take place between 0930-1700 on weekdays and evenings will comprise communal activities. All tuition, board and accommodation is included in the course fee. Transfers to/from the school can be arranged at an additional fee.
There will be a maximum of 15 students per class, however, there will be international students staying at the school which is a fantastic opportunity to mix with young people from across the world.
