Welcome to KLC

I set up the school 26 years ago as I felt there was a need for courses that addressed the real practicalities of design as well as the more obvious aesthetics. The idea behind this has remained the focus of the school as it has developed over the years as students have found that a sound, practical grasp of the subject combined with professional communication skills gives them the confidence they need to set out to work in the garden or interior design industry.

We work hard to provide the right, up to date training for the industries we serve and constantly review the content and delivery of our courses in the light of the regular surveys we carry out. We have recently increased our programme substantially to include more flexible part time and short courses and our course advisors will be happy to spend time putting together the most suitable way forward for your needs. The approach here is geared to adult learning and we try to make the courses, however intensive, thoroughly enjoyable and the atmosphere friendly and professional. The focus of the training is on developing the individual potential of each student and our extensive careers service is designed to help students on the professional courses make a successful transition from course to workplace.

Our staff work together as a close knit team and we are all dedicated to achieving the highest standards possible. I hope that among the various courses detailed here you will find something of interest and look forward to welcoming you to the school.
