A transformative two-week summer programme for motivated students aged 15-18, built around the art of communication, storytelling, and public speaking. Through a blend of theory and practice, small-group collaboration, and personal coaching, participants learn to shape powerful ideas and deliver them with clarity, confidence, and presence. The experience culminates in each student presenting their own TED-style talk to a live audience, captured on video. Why choose TED Summer School? Great communicators don’t just inform, they inspire action. TED Summer School offers ambitious students a rigorous, high-support environment to master the skills that make ideas resonate: clear structure, compelling narrative, evidence, voice, presence, and visual design. Beyond the talk, participants leave with a toolkit they can use across essays, interviews, leadership roles, and academic or professional pursuits. Locations: London, New York, Singapore

Discover the world of luxury fashion design and making, where craftsmanship, detail, and branding come together. This 3-day immersive course combines sewing with specialist digital embroidery, giving students the opportunity to design and create a refined garment or accessory finished with their own bespoke embroidered logo or motif. Led by our highly experienced tutor Jasmine, students will be guided through the process of designing with intention — considering luxury aesthetics, branding, colour palette,s and precision finishing. Using our professional digital embroidery machine, students will learn how designers personalise garments and accessories to elevate them from handmade to truly special. Projects are tailored to all sewing abilities, from beginners to more confident makers. Depending on experience, students may create an accessory (such as a bag or pouch) or a simple yet elegant garment, enhanced with custom embroidery. The focus is on quality over quantity, slowing down the making process to achieve beautiful, considered results.
