Welcome! We’re excited to have you join our creative community. To ensure everyone has a fun, safe, and respectful experience, please read and agree to the following guidelines:
Respect Everyone
Treat all fellow students, instructors, and staff with kindness and respect. Everyone’s ideas and skills are valued, so let’s encourage and support each other.
Safety First
Always follow safety instructions carefully and do not use any power or gas tools unless you have had a full induction and are confident you know how to use them safely. Ask your tutor for help if you’re unsure about any process.
Keep the Workshop Friendly
Maintain a positive attitude and be patient with yourself and others. Remember, mistakes are part of learning—and we’re here to grow together! Often, the most useful learning and progress happen through making ‘mistakes’ and trying different approaches.
Respect the Space and Equipment
Treat tools, materials, and the workspace with care. Clean up after yourself and put supplies back where they came from. If you are not sure where something belongs, ask your instructor. Report any damage or issues to the instructor.
No Unsolicited Advice
We encourage sharing ideas and techniques, but please avoid offering unsolicited advice or criticism. If someone asks for feedback, kindly share your thoughts with respect and consideration.
Zero Tolerance for Racism and Bullying
Our community is inclusive and welcoming. We have a strict zero-tolerance policy towards any form of racism, bullying, discrimination, or harassment. Anyone behaving disrespectfully will be asked to leave.
Confidentiality & Personal Boundaries
Respect others’ privacy and personal space. Sharing ideas and techniques is encouraged, but please keep personal stories and discussions respectful and considerate.
Be Open-Minded
Every artist has their unique style. Be open to new ideas, techniques, and feedback—we all have something to learn!
Have Fun!
Most importantly, enjoy the process, get creative, and make some beautiful jewellery!
By participating in the course, you agree to follow this Code of Conduct so we can all have a safe and inspiring experience. Thank you for being part of our community!
