ArtsEd Higher Education 

ArtsEd is one of the UK’s leading providers of degree-level conservatoire education. Our Foundation, BA and MA courses in Musical Theatre and Acting, create graduates who are innovative and resilient performers. We prepare our students for both the physical and mental rigours of the performing arts industry through a combination of outstanding vocational training and focused pastoral care. The success of our approach has led to our alumni playing a key role in the success of the UK’s creative economy for many years and they include choreographers, directors, and producers, as well as performers.

The future of this country’s theatre tradition depends on centres of excellence such as ArtsEd.

ArtsEd Day School & Sixth Form 

Our Day School & Sixth Form is a national centre of excellence for the study of the performing arts. Founded over 100 years ago, ArtsEd’s ethos remains much the same today as it was then: to provide a broad and balanced education, stretching pupils to achieve their academic, artistic, and personal potential.

An independent day school like no other; ArtsEd is an international leader in performing arts education and a local and national leader in its wider academic provision. Our pupils enjoy a high-quality vocational programme delivered by committed and creative professionals, whose expertise instils in our pupils a passion for performance that feeds into all aspects of their educational and personal development. Our students spend time every day doing what they love, encouraging their development into happy, collaborative, and well-rounded individuals, fully committed to holistic education and, at 16+ or 18+, armed with a set of skills and experiences that prepare them for whatever pathway they choose to follow.
