how much will it cost?
For Autumn term 2024 we will charge £105 for the 5 week term. You can also pay in 3 instalments of £35.
Over the last few years, SC&T has actively taken steps to ensure that classes are accessible to as many people as possible. In the past we have offered concessions to specific groups such as those in receipt of a pension or other benefits, as well as sourcing funding for a limited number of free places. In light of the impact of Covid over previous years we decided to review our approach to ensure that our support is more targeted to include individuals who would be unable to access classes at the full fee. As a result, we have decided to move away from a standard concession rate for specific groups and instead, try to provide support to those who need this most and who would otherwise be unable to join our classes.
If you feel that your financial circumstances make it difficult for to pay the full fee we would encourage you to contact the office@scottishculture.org and we will consider a reduction. We will not require detailed financial information. We also have a limited number of free places which you may be considered for.
On the other hand, if you would like to give a little bit more, you can also Donate to SC&T.
What if I can’t manage all 10 weeks?
In those classes where the lessons are being recorded the video and course materials will be available for you to use through the Thinkific platform if you miss a class. Note that we are unable to accept applications for partial participation.
