Is this course for me?

This course is an intense, exciting one year training course that can be a springboard for learners who already have level 3 qualifications - either BTEC or A levels - for entry to higher education. You will cover key knowledge and practical skills required to work in the performing arts and you will have several opportunities to perform. The Subsidiary Diploma can also be taken for additional specialist training for learners who want to add extra performance skills to their existing qualifications.

What can I do next?

This can lead to higher education at institutions including Rose Bruford, Central School of Speech & Drama, Itali Conti, Manchester University, Goldsmiths University and RADA.

What are the entry requirements?

You will need to have a focused, independent and enthusiastic approach to learning. You will also need to complete an audition and interview.
