Mature Student Applications

To be eligible to be a Mature Student at Brockwood Park School you must be between 21 and 30 years of age and have an interest in Krishnamurti's teachings. We are currently offering one organized course of study entitled An Approach to Consciousness via Education. Mature Students are required to work for 20 hours per week to cover the cost of their food and accommodation at Brockwood.

The course of studies involves mature students meeting twice a week for Dialogue with the Tutor. One of these is a Study-Dialogue where an extract from the Teacher Education Manual is read aloud together. This leads to an inquiry into what Krishnamurti is saying or to a more general dialogue/ discussion of issues pertaining to education, with a special focus on issues relating to education at Brockwood. The second is an Open Dialogue with no pre-arranged topic. After an initial period of silence, it is open to anyone in the group to raise a topic which is of concern to them; generally this is then explored for the whole session. Attendance at these dialogues is for Mature Students only. The Tutor is available at all times for individual tutorials; which may follow an aspect of education or, at times, be of a more personal nature.

If you would like to be sent further information or an application pack for the Mature Student Programme then please contact us through the form on the contact page.

Self-knowledge is education. In education there is neither the teacher nor the taught, there is only learning; the educator is learning, as the student is.
