Trade School South London

Trade School South London Creating a community for an alternative learning system based on barter Trade School is a self-organised
learning community that runs on barter.

Its mutual-aid ethos focuses on bringing people together who want to teach/learn in exchange for goods or services which you can specify if you wish. What do you think happened before money was invented? Barter is one of the oldest forms of exchange that dates back as old as 6000B.C! Well we want to bring some of that back for us! We believe that money should not be what limits us when it comes to learning. Are you interested in sharing/learning a skill or would like to learn more about Trade School and how it works? Please do not hesitate to get in contact! Just leave us a message on here or email:

evening guys! website is up and running to submit classes you want to teach or sign up to our first class! some of your have asked how exactly it works...

1) Anyone can offer to teach a class about something they know. For example, how to create a website, an introduction to knitting, how to wire a plug, basics in Spanish, basics in singing, DIY xmas gifts etc.

2) The "teacher" decides on a list of barter items they're interested in receiving. Barter items can be in the form of goods or services, both tangible and intangible. For example: jars, music tips, clothes, vegetables, or help with something like finding an apartment, or a follow on a blog

3) Students sign up for their class on our website by agreeing to bring something from their list.

4) On the day of class, the teachers & students meet in a space that is made available by us. Students give their barter item to the teacher, and the class begins!

Website is up! sign up for our first class here! http://tradeschool.coop/southlondon/

Take a class with a range of specialized teachers in exchange for basic items and services. Secure a spot in a TradeSchool class by meeting one of the teachers barter needs.
