About Us
Discussion groups
The School works through discussion in groups.
All tutors are also students of philosophy within the school, and attend weekly classes as a student.
The intent of the school is that everyone attending, however long or short their stay, will find something of value for use in their lives.
All are welcome
All are welcome to sample what the school has to offer through the introductory course, and to continue further with their studies as they wish.
We are an educational charity and a not-for-profit organisation. Course fees are kept as low as possible and are used to enable the school to continue to offer its courses to as many people as possible.
How it works
A tutor presents material, and leads a discussion based on what arises. Being practical rather than academic, the emphasis is on personal knowledge. Students are encouraged neither to accept nor reject the ideas put forward, but to test them in practice for themselves, in the light of their own experience.

Frequently asked questions
The course is practical in the sense that it takes philosophical ideas and shows how they can be of direct use in our everyday lives. The intention is to stimulate enquiry and through this expand the way we look at the world and ourselves.
