Located in Glasgow City Centre, The Royal Conservatoire is Scotland's national centre of professional vocational training in performance arts. We provide a range of Short Summer Courses in a range of performing and production arts disciplines (Dance, Drama, Music, Production, and Screen) designed for children and young adults ages 1-17 from all over the world.

Each summer we present a packed programme of performing arts classes for young people (and adults). The wide variety of these summer courses are distinctive in the way that we use performing arts to allow our students to share their views, ideas and passions with each other.

Our summer schools are specialist courses designed and delivered by the Royal Conservatoire’s tutors, lecturers and professors who teach our undergraduate and postgraduate students. For the majority of our courses we have an open access policy. We welcome learners at all levels of experience and are committed to reducing barriers to participation in the arts.

The ethos of our work is built upon the belief that the arts can contribute to the development of the whole person. We value inter-disciplinary working, use traditional and contemporary practices to inform our teaching, and support the principle of access to excellence for all.

Designed for those who aim to study at a world-class university in the UK or abroad, our enrichment programmes are 2, 3, or 4 weeks in duration.

During their enrichment course, students will learn more about studying, living, and working in the United Kingdom. Advice and guidance is given to students on all aspects of applying to university in the UK, from making the right choice, to negotiating the UCAS system and writing a personal statement.

During each summer course, students visit Oxford, Cambridge and other Russell-group universities and have the opportunity to meet admissions tutors and undergraduates. Every student is assigned their own individual Learning Mentor, who helps them to identify their life and learning goals, and achieve them.

In addition, students gain valuable life and work experience by engaging in a project, drawn from academia, the arts and heritage industry, or the business world. Students can choose a project that reflects their own interests, and this project-based learning develops students' core skills in presentations and management.

As well as at least 30 hours of tuition a week, students participate in a full programme of social events & excursions, with visits to London & Shakespeare's birthplace, Stratford-on-Avon, as well as other iconic English destinations.
