GOAT Guernsey Academy
How you learn here

You join a brief. The brief is the syllabus.

No parked curriculum in a drawer. Tracks exist so a person can arrive useful. The work is a tender from Can We or a live Petersfield job.

Bench 01

Model & make

Survey to SketchUp. Components, not clutter. Aircrete and modular parts. Hand-off to planting and to a priced pack.

Bench 02

Grow & diagnose

Stock, soil, water, yield. Biography of a plant as a working document. Kitchen-facing growing cells.

Bench 03

Control & automate

Sensors, reservoirs, motors. The unromantic work that lets a garden run when nobody is watching.

Bench 04

Story & set

Photograph, animate, write, film. Streetscape and gardens as meaning, not decoration.

Bench 05

Price & deliver

Proposal language. Build spec. Schedule of works. The commercial craft that keeps a node alive.

Shared

Civic literacy

The Can We tracks: four columns, opportunity cost, reading a tender. Everyone who builds for the island reads the books.
