Central Saint Martins (CSM), London

Does Sue Jenkyn Jones still teach at CSM?

I am curious for those that go there, how technical is their teaching of garment construction? The school seems to produce alot of amazing technical talents, is that because the school focuses on it or is it each student's own motivation and effort?

well that sucks
but no choice..i have to take it =T

[.:sprigged:.]

In my opinion.

The halls are nice, but in *£%& neighborhoods.

If you can, live elsewhere. I met one person who I still care about...but she (smartly) moved out early, and we have lost touch

the school doesnt really focus on it as much as other schools but the teaching is good, after the first term you will be able to make anything with your eyes shut

Does anyone know anything about the fashion journalism courses there?

[VICTIM]

i dont think there is a journalism course at st martins but there is fashion history and theory, one of my friends does that she writes a lot of essays so i guess its similar

ok i've read throught this thread and i dont think this has been asked (sorry if it has)
but i was wondering what grades do you have to get to get into st martins to do a foundation course in art and design and then to go on to do ba in fashion. Are they really selective and do only the elite get in? Do you have to have an a* in gcse and a-level art?

my frd told me that if u are applying through UCAS, u'll have to get an A in art or art history to get an interview...
dunno whether it's true of not...

there is nothing you can learn at st martins which you cant teach yourself.

[VICTIM]

st martins taught me loads! but then again i wasnt taught by DK or SF
