Ruskin Mill has a 24-hour curriculum and a unique method, Practical Skills Therapeutic Education, in order to support the re-imagination of the student’s potential and shape their own future.

The students at Ruskin Mill College benefit from an extensive range of nutritional, therapeutic and medical support within the College. Each core element of the educational cycle is designed to establish active and positive relationships with nature, people and the community through a holistic approach to human development and supports three key stages: overcoming barriers to learning, becoming skilled, and being ready to engage and give back to the community.
