The YCL is excited to announce our second ever Harry Pollitt School which will be held on the weekend of 6 and 7 April 2024!
Named after the legendary Communist Party leader, our weekend school for communists, trade union militants, students, and workers will be an opportunity to learn, socialise, exchange views, and help build the struggle for Socialism in Britain!
Harry Pollitt School is open to anyone interested in Communist politics, so you don’t have to be a member of the YCL or Communist Party to join. The school carries on the Communist dedication to strengthening Britain’s labour movement through the political education we need for real, on-the-ground organising.
Tickets are now on sale, so book your place for the biggest Marxist-Leninist educational event in the country!
What is it?
This year’s Harry Pollitt School will be held from 9am on the morning of Saturday 6 April, to 6pm on Sunday 7 April 2024 at the Irish World Heritage Centre, 1 Irish Town Way, Cheetham Hill, Manchester, M8 0AE.
The full timetable and activities will be published in early February. The School is set to feature talks, workshops, and panel discussions with communist speakers from Britain and all around the world, as well as leading trade unionists, community organisers, communist thinkers, and more.
The timetable will also include a strong cultural programme including sessions on working class culture, film screenings, and a communist walking tour of Manchester. There will also be a social event on Saturday night and plenty of time for meeting other comrades from across Britain.
Comrades travelling from Scotland, Wales, or further afield are encouraged to make their own transport arrangements as soon as possible, but the venue is easily reachable from the centre of Manchester by car, tram, or bus.
This year’s Harry Pollitt School is looking to be bigger, better, and more militant than ever, so make sure you join us for another great weekend of revolutionary education and action!
Places are limited, so book your tickets now!
