Course Overview:
Access courses are designed to enable people aged 19+ to gain a qualification which is accepted by universities as an alternative to ALevels. Access courses are delivered over one year as opposed to the two years required for A Levels. An access course is therefore ideal for anyone who left school without formal qualifications, or for people who wish to change career without having to do two years of Alevels.

The Course leads to an Access To University Level 3 qualification accredited by the Open College Network London Region. This is equivalent to 2.5 A levels. This course is also appropriate for application to CDS Drama School or university.

Our Access to Drama course is taught very practically with a large emphasis on doingand exploring.

Lessons are taught by a combination of tutors and include workshops, presentations, lectures, group and individual work, debates and discussions and performance.

You will encounter visiting speakers, workshops, acting companies, and visiting local actors, including regular visits from alumni. In previous years this has included: Tom Hardy, Sam Waters, Nic Knight, Cinnamon casting and many more.

There is also a significant amount of written homework within the course- to be completed out of class time.
