EDUCATION & LEARNING :
IGNITE !: GUIDING CAREER PATHWAYS
This goes hand-in-hand with our existing relationships with Evolve Arts who deliver our LAMDA ( London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art ) examinations , Auckland Dance , the Royal Shakespeare Company and ISTA which give our students the opportunity to work with professionals from all areas of the performing arts industry . Students who are in the Ignite ! programme will have a dedicated mentor from the faculty to nurture them in their pursuits and help them identify their choice of career .
Students no longer have to grapple with the question of who they want to be when the grow up because through Ignite ! we support our students in discovering who they want to be now .
Students will have access to working with directors , actors , producers and designers in the Performing Arts Industry creating a network of contacts to help them in their chosen pathways .
