Job description

You will be taught by our mentors at our flagship London Fashion Academy located in the heart of Mayfair; a prestigious address just a stone’s throw from the city’s most iconic high-fashion emporia.

The Academy is run by fashion professionals, not simply academic teachers, and it is highly focused on professional excellence. Our staff are among the best in their field, professionally within fashion, and pedagogically within education. They are friendly and approachable people who work together to help create a professionally focused learning community that brings together and inculcates students, staff, and associates from the wider fashion industry.

Our luxurious campus is in the final stages of development as we convert a period Mayfair property into a state-of-the-art learning facility. Studio practice is the main pedagogy at the Academy and every learner will have access to a dedicated design studio housed with core design facilities. In addition, our newly fitted workshops are equipped with industrial sewing machines, pattern cutting tables, and specialist sampling and fabrication facilities. Learners will be supported through portable IT facilities and be able to access specialist texts and journals via our online and physical library.

Accommodation Options

Finding the right kind of accommodation is important as a first-year student. To help you make the best choice; we have compiled a list of university halls that offer everything a student needs for a comfortable first year.

Students at the Academy will enjoy a range of student entitlements that will include:

1. Studio Technician team providing scheduled and on-demand support with technical, IT and learning resources.
2. Student Engagement team providing wide-ranging support from information, advice, and guidance (such as accommodation and financial support), pastoral support, through to facilitating the activities of the Student’s Union.
3. Library Support team providing on-demand support with access to learning resources, research, and referencing support.
4. Business Incubation team providing advice and guidance on enterprise development, careers advice, general business support, and external referrals.

We are certain you have heard that London can be quite expensive. As a student who will only have time to work part time, you will be extremely glad to learn that your student status can grant you many discounts.

As a student in London you should never forget that your study can only be a successful and happy experience when you take care of the health of your body, mind and soul. In this section, we will cover some basic information about how and where to get medical help during your stay in London.

Our portfolio features a range of courses to suit future fashion pioneers at different stages of their journey, from short courses all the way up to Masters.
