Lessons consist of a blended learning approach. Studying a range of practitioners and their key methodologies will enable you to apply your learning to a wide range of practical work. This course has an industry focus, which means we teach you everything you need to succeed in this competitive industry and progress onto higher education, if you wish to. As a student you will develop all areas of performance skills, including singing, dancing, physical theatre and stage management. We also contract professional companies to deliver other workshops such as puppetry, circus skills and arrange trips to see live theatre.

What our
students
The New College Bradford Performing Arts department is a place where the teachers encouraged me to be who I am today and helped me define myself. It taught me the life skills I will forever use. My teacher gave me the power to create what I want to create and made us feel like a true drama company.
