What's unsual about the Tvind colleges?
The Tvind colleges offer some training. But they are also financial enterprises within the multinational profit-making Tvind organisation and part of the financial network controlled by the Teachers Group:
Argyll Smith & Co
* The buildings and land are all owned by an offshore property company, Argyll Smith and Company, that is controlled by Tvind and to which the colleges pay rent. Argyll Smith is cited in the 2001 Danish police report into alleged fraud. Are property rents a means of transferring money to the Teachers Group?
Teachers Group
* The most senior managers and head teachers are themselves products of Tvind and are exclusively members of the Teachers Group.
Humana and Planet Aid
* Foreign volunteer postings are always with Tvind's own foreign aid projects, Humana, Planet Aid, DAPP and ADPP. Students are often expected to give free labour to Teachers Group clothing enterprises, collecting and sorting clothes.
Fundraising
* Students have to spend quite a few weeks begging for money on the streets, selling pamphlets, a bit like the Children of God.
