Originally begun in the UK as the Writing School, Lifestyle Learning Direct branched out into Australia, New Zealand and Singapore in 1984. The School’s reputation has grown considerably since, a testimony to the School’s commitment to provide quality courses and the large numbers of satisfied students. The Sackville Academy was born later to cater for non-writing “lifestyle” courses and, under both banners - The Writing School and The Sackville Academy - the School now provides a wide range of products to suit the varied requirements of correspondence education.
