the creative writing programme
Brighton
The Creative Writing Programme is one of the leading centres for creative
writing in the UK. After moving out of the University of Sussex it has
established a reputation for excellence in Brighton and the South East. Our
approach to teaching creative writing At a time when the cost of higher
education has made university study an expensive luxury, our programmes offer a
practical course of study, taught at university level, at an affordable price.
Our innovative approach to teaching focuses on individual creativity and on
teaching writing skills within the context of the creative process. Through a
practical course of study designed to teach you how to build and structure
narrative, our team of experienced writing tutors will help you develop your
creative potential. Blended creative writing courses Work patterns and learning
patterns are changing. To accommodate this new reality, as well as our in-person
courses we have developed a new blended learning structure for our two-year
programme. Our blended courses, aimed at local writers in the South East, are a
mix of online and in person teaching, with classes taught from the Phoenix Art
Space, or The Kemptown Bookshop in Brighton in early autumn and summer and
online during the winter. You’ll spend the first five weeks of the Autumn Term
meeting up in person, then switch to online learning as Winter sets in. We’ll
stick with online classes until clocks go forward in March, then meet up again
in person for the end of the Spring Term and the whole of the Summer Term. This
way we make the most of what online learning has to offer, get to know each
other, work together as a group, avoid travel over the winter months, stay safe
and reduce our carbon footprint. We think that’s a positive.
