Day of Action

On Wednesday 10th November over 50,000 students and education workers marched through central London: the biggest protest for education since Margaret Thatcher tried to introduce tuition fees in 1985. On Wednesday 24th students are walking out and demonstrating in a day of civil disobedience.

Funding cuts and fees of up to £9000 will burden students with debts of up to £50,000. The message from the Con-Dem government is clear: education is for the privileged only. We must fight for the principle: education is a right, not a privilege. Fund our future.

Current students may also be affected by staff cuts, fewer resources and a decline in quality of teaching.

The government claims cuts are a necessity while banks propped up by public funds rake in profits and pay out billions in bonuses and Britain’s highest earners have been allowed to dodge up to £40 billion in tax payments through a government agreement with Swiss banks. The cuts are an attack on all but the most privileged members of society, and on the public services that we rely on. Unite to fight the cuts.

Welcome to our new course 2010/2011


The Team Sculpture School of Art is one of the biggest in Europe. It boasts an infinite campus and the combined facilities of Chelsea, Goldsmiths, St. Martins, Byam Shaw, Camberwell and Cambridge. There are no tutors but enough students to keep track of what we are doing, organize shows, pay each other visits, share tips and make drinking appointments. It would be the school's pleasure if you joined us for this life-long degree. Say yeah?
