Inside the Junk Kouture Education Hub: Your 2026–27 Resources
A new Junk Kouture competition cycle means new ideas, new designs and plenty of creativity in classrooms - and we want to make it as easy as possible for Educators and students to get started.
The Junk Kouture Education Hub brings together the resources and guidance you’ll need to support your students throughout the 2026–27 competition cycle, all in one place.
Whether you’re introducing Junk Kouture to your students for the first time or returning for another year, the Hub is designed to help you plan, explore and work through the programme at a pace that suits your classroom.
