Small Groups
The maximum number of learners in each group is 12. We advise you to enrol early to secure your place.
Important First Two Sessions
Early in the course, you will need to take your body measurements. This is best done with a colleague, as taking your measurements yourself is not always accurate. There is a separate area where students can take their measurements privately, if required.
Equipment and Materials
You will need to provide a basic tool kit that you should not share with other students, such as scissors, tape measure, etc.
If you are a new learner to the course please bring a note book and pen to the first lesson. You may also want to bring a folder for the handouts you will be given. During the first lesson you will be advised what tools and equipment you will need to buy for the course, so you do not need to buy anything beforehand.
For returning learners or those attending the Clothesmaking for Improvers course, please bring along the project you would like to work on in class.
We have a limited number of sewing machines that you can use during the session on a first-come, first-served basis. If you bring your own machine, it will need to be PAT tested before you can use it. This can be done on site at the first session.
Safety
Our learners’ wellbeing and safety is our prime concern and we ask that you work with us to ensure safe working practices. We realise that some equipment e.g iron, overlockers, specialist sewing machine feet etc. is used by multiple users at times. Equipment is maintained and upgraded regularly. You may work out a rota with your tutor to ensure that everyone has access to all facilities. There are sanitising facilities in the classroom for your convenience.
Food and Drink
Only bottled water in a sealed container is allowed, please keep it in your bag when not in use.
